Hi folks,
I'm currently thinking about using git for mail synchronization.
The scenario:
* multiple hosts share a set of maildirs where new mails can be
added or removed arbitrarily (using non-conflicting filenames,
eg. their sha-hashes)
* on each host, the current tree is committed in some time
interval
* the hosts pull from each other and merge in the other's trees.
Could this work well ?
