+
+The `mailbox` plugin adds support to ikiwiki for
+rendering mailbox file into a page displaying the mails
+in the mailbox. It supports mbox, maildir, and MH folders,
+does threading, and deals with MIME.
+
+One hitch I noticed was that it is not currently possible to treat a
+maildir or an MH directory as a page (i.e. just call it foo.mh and have it
+transformed to page foo). I'm not sure if this is possible and worthwhile
+to fix. It is certainly workable to use a [[!mailbox ]] directive.

+
+This plugin is not in ikiwiki yet, but can be downloaded
+from <http://pivot.cs.unb.ca/git/ikimailbox.git>
