Yes, we should have consistent options for all.

Not in the near future, my priorities are :
mailutils/imap4d to complete/test
mailutils/pop3d to complete/test
mailutils/mail to complete/test
mailutils/mailbox to complete/test
mailutils/doc to ... write
..
Something else?

The rewrite of the mailutils/mailbox/*
is taken longer then expected 8-(.
