+Q4.0.2: How do I get VM to filter mail for me?
+----------------------------------------------
+
+ One possibility is to use procmail to split your mail before it gets
+to VM. I prefer this personally, since there are many strange and
+wonderful things one can do with procmail. Procmail may be found at
+`ftp://ftp.informatik.rwth-aachen.de/pub/packages/procmail/'.

+ Also see the Mail Filtering FAQ at:

-Q5.1.3: Could you explain `read-kbd-macro' in more detail?
-----------------------------------------------------------
-
- The `read-kbd-macro' function returns the internal Emacs
-representation of a human-readable string (which is its argument).
-Thus:
-
- (read-kbd-macro "C-c C-a")
- => [(control ?c) (control ?a)]
-
- (read-kbd-macro "C-c C-. <up>")
- => [(control ?c) (control ?.) up]
-
- In GNU Emacs the same forms will be evaluated to what GNU Emacs
-understands internally--the sequences `"\C-x\C-c"' and `[3 67108910
-up]', respectively.
-
- The exact "human-readable" syntax is defined in the docstring of
-`edmacro-mode'. I'll repeat it here, for completeness.
-
- Format of keyboard macros during editing:
-
- Text is divided into "words" separated by whitespace. Except for
- the words described below, the characters of each word go directly
- as characters of the macro. The whitespace that separates words is
- ignored. Whitespace in the macro must be written explicitly, as in
- `foo <SPC> bar <RET>'.
-
- * The special words `RET', `SPC', `TAB', `DEL', `LFD', `ESC',
- and `NUL' represent special control characters. The words
- must be written in uppercase.
-
- * A word in angle brackets, e.g., `<return>', `<down>', or
- `<f1>', represents a function key. (Note that in the standard
- configuration, the function key `<return>' and the control key
- <RET> are synonymous.) You can use angle brackets on the
- words <RET>, <SPC>, etc., but they are not required there.
-
- * Keys can be written by their ASCII code, using a backslash
- followed by up to six octal digits. This is the only way to
- represent keys with codes above \377.
-
- * One or more prefixes `M-' (meta), `C-' (control), `S-'
- (shift), `A-' (alt), `H-' (hyper), and `s-' (super) may
- precede a character or key notation. For function keys, the
- prefixes may go inside or outside of the brackets: `C-<down>'
- == `<C-down>'. The prefixes may be written in any order:
- `M-C-x' == `C-M-x'.
-
- Prefixes are not allowed on multi-key words, e.g., `C-abc',
- except that the Meta prefix is allowed on a sequence of
- digits and optional minus sign: `M--123' == `M-- M-1 M-2 M-3'.
-
- * The `^' notation for control characters also works: `^M' ==
- `C-m'.
-
- * Double angle brackets enclose command names: `<<next-line>>'
- is shorthand for `M-x next-line <RET>'.
-
- * Finally, `REM' or `;;' causes the rest of the line to be
- ignored as a comment.
-
- Any word may be prefixed by a multiplier in the form of a decimal
- number and `*': `3*<right>' == `<right> <right> <right>', and
- `10*foo' == `foofoofoofoofoofoofoofoofoofoo'.
-
- Multiple text keys can normally be strung together to form a word,
- but you may need to add whitespace if the word would look like one
- of the above notations: `; ; ;' is a keyboard macro with three
- semicolons, but `;;;' is a comment. Likewise, `\ 1 2 3' is four
- keys but `\123' is a single key written in octal, and `< right >'
- is seven keys but `<right>' is a single function key. When in
- doubt, use whitespace.

-Q5.1.4: What is the performance hit of `let'?
----------------------------------------------
-
- In most cases, not noticeable. Besides, there's no avoiding
-`let'--you have to bind your local variables, after all. Some pose a
-question whether to nest `let's, or use one `let' per function. I
-think because of clarity and maintenance (and possible future
-implementation), `let'-s should be used (nested) in a way to provide
-the clearest code.
