2021-01-01	update copyrights for 2021
	Using "make update-copyrights" after setting GNULIB_PATH in my config.mak
2021-01-01	lei_to_mail: open FIFOs O_WRONLY so we block
	Opening a FIFO with O_RDWR always succeeds on Linux, which cause the cat(1) process invoked by t/lei_to_mail.t to get stuck. Furthermore O_APPEND makes no sense on FIFOs and perhaps there's some kernel out there which will reject it.
2021-01-01	lei_to_mail: unlink mboxes if not augmenting
	This matches mairix(1) behavior and may be safer if there's concurrent readers on the existing mbox, especially since we don't do currently implement mbox locking (nor does mairix).
2021-01-01	lei_to_mail: support Maildir, fix+test --augment
	Maildir should be plenty fine for short-lived output folders.
2021-01-01	lei_to_mail: support for non-seekable outputs
	Users may wish to pipe output to "git am", "spamc", or similar, so we need to support those cases and not bail out on lseek(2) or ftruncate(2) failures.
2021-01-01	lei_to_mail: lazy-require LeiDedupe
	LeiDedupe requires SQLite, so we may want to be able to test writing mail without DBI or SQLite down the line.
2021-01-01	lei: implement various deduplication strategies
	For writing mboxes and Maildirs, users may wish to use stricter or looser deduplication strategies. This gives them more control.
2021-01-01	lei_to_mail: start --augment, dedupe, bz2 and xz
	--augment will match the mairix(1) option of the same name to augment existing search results. We'll need to implement deduplication for a better user experience. mutt ships with compressed mbox support for bz2 and xz, at least, so we'll support those out-of-the-box.
2021-01-01	lei_to_mail: start atomic and compressed mbox writing
	We'll allow using multiple workers to write to a single mbox (which could be compressed). This is can be done safely with O_APPEND + syswrite for uncompressed files, and using a lock when piping to pigz/gzip/bzip2/xz.
2021-01-01	lei_to_mail: initial implementation for writing mbox formats
	No Maildir, support, yet, but it'll come.
