IMO a casual user does not need ELMO is or what ELMO supports if the supported folders are discussed in the chapter. >Shouldn't that sentence be stricken from the doc, or changed to >something like: > Wanderlust has a sub-package called ELMO that is responsible for > low-level folder management, so you'll find that many of > Wanderlust's folder-related functions and customizations begin with > `elmo-' This wouldn't be accurate: ELMO is not a subpackage but WL's backend. And, in turn, WL is ELMO's frontend. Maybe just put this part of the manual on a list for further discussion. IIRC there are similarities in WL's and Mew's folder syntax and maybe there is a historical connection.
