Me again...

Thanks for RemoteNB 1.06, Tom: it seems to fix a few problems.

I note you've been fixing your lock-handling code.  Indeed, the inbox does
seem to get locked, which I guess is a Good Thing.  It does mean, however,
that, when I choose to read my mail via Pine, it can't get write access to
my inbox.  I'm not sure if that's a huge problem, but how viable would it
be to unlock the mailbox when you're not scanning it?

None of the other folders seem to get locked in the same way: is that
intentional/unintentional/Pine's fault anyway?

I'm looking forward to your message-fetches-during-a-scan code... 

Cheers,

Richard
