1. By default the cclient uses the old-fashioned unix type of mail folder format. Included in cclient there is an alternative, MBX format, which is recommended by the Pine development team as a more effecient format, which it really is. The mail/cclient port does not offer any convinient way of using that as the default folder format. I suggest that there is an options to patch the source to get MBX as the default mailbox format. 2. The mail/cclient port has serveral options. Today they are handled in the old-fashioned way which requires that the user includes those as options on the command line when upgrading, which makes upgrades more cumbersome. I suggets that the mail/cclient port uses settings with OPTIONS to achieve a simpler handling. Fix: The patch below will update the mail/cclient Makefile to support the two suggested changes. I have locally tested the patch, and found no problems with it. How-To-Repeat: N/A
