As someone who doesn't use the remote commands, and was NOT confused :-), I
liked the fact that I could separate my bulk mail from non-bulk one.  For
me, they in two different classes of spam: the non-bulk is far more likely
to be spam, whereas the bulk one is more likely to be some mailing list mail
I'm on that's not in my whitelist.

I also think it's somewhat bad to store bulk mail messages in the same queue
directory.  Bulk mail messages will never be removed from the queue via
someone replying to a confirmation, since no confirmation request was sent
for those.  Again, bulk and non-bulk mails are really two different classes
of emails IMHO, and should remain in separate queues.

Is it possible to add a feature that'll separate the two somehow (different
queue dir or different file name prefix)?  We can keep the default behavior
as is, but allow people like me to have more control over these two
different queues (I use all sorts of shell scripts to integrate ASK w/ my MH
system).

Thanks,
