inc: accept mail from multiple source mailboxes.
* doc/texinfo/mu-mh.texi: Document changes to inc. * NEWS: Likewise. * mh/inc.c: Accept multiple source mailboxes. (input_file): Remove. (input_file_list): New variable. (opt_handler): Multiple -file options augment input_file_list. (incmbox): New function. (main): Iterate over input_file_list, incorporating mail from each mailbox in it. Bugfix: * libproto/imap/mbox.c (_imap_env_date): Return a 0-terminated string. Fix MH test suite. The ali-everybody tests fails on machines with user database kept in a non-standard storage (e.g. LDAP or NIS). This patch attempts to fix it. * mh/tests/lu.c: New file. * mh/tests/.gitignore: Add lu. * mh/tests/Makefile.am (noinst_PROGRAMS): New variable. * mh/tests/ali.at: Use lu instead of scanning /etc/passwd directly.

+** MH: multiple sources
+
+The `inc' command is able to incorporate messages from several
+source mailboxes. These are specified via multiple `-file'
+options, e.g.:
+
+ inc -truncate \
+ -file 'imaps://imap.gmail.com;moveto=archived' \
+ -file pops://mail.gnu.org \
+ -file /var/mail/root
+
+Additional parameters can be used in URLs supplied with the `-file'
+option:
+
+ moveto=FOLDER
+ Moves incorporated messages into FOLDER. This is similar to the
+ `--moveto' option, but applies only to that particular mailbox.
+ See the example above.
+
+ nomoveto
+ Disables the previous `--moveto' option.
+
+ truncate[=BOOL]
+ Controls source mailbox truncation. If BOOL is not given or is
+ "yes", the mailbox will be truncated after successful processing.
+ If BOOL is "no", the source mailbox will not be truncated.
