Subject:	Maildir and colon
Message-ID:	<20010501175533.A297@BOEKHOFF_M>
Mime-Version:	1.0

I just switched over from "mbox" to "maildir" format and now my Cygwin mutt
client moans because it is using a colon ":" as part of a filename in a rename
statement and colons aren't allowed in Win32 pathnames.

Is there any way of changing the character being used other than re-compiling?
