;;; Code:

	(intern stuff)

  "mail spool locking method used by this instance of XEmacs.
This must be one of the symbols in MAIL-LOCK-METHODS.")

(defun move-mail-spool (from to &optional buffer pop-password)
  "Move mail spool in file FROM to file TO.
BUFFER is a buffer for error messages.
POP-PASSWORD is a password for POP mailbox access."
