I'm pretty sure you don't need any hooks, though; I'd guess that's the whole reason for the patch. If it does use hooks as shown above, though, then it should be easy to create a hook for your .tgz maildirs as well. good times, Vineet -- http://www.doorstop.net/ -- http://www.aclu.org/ It's all about Freedom.
