[PATCH v7 2/3] add support for user-specified files & directories to ignore

Tomi Ollila tomi.ollila at iki.fi
Wed Feb 15 01:17:31 PST 2012


A new configuration key 'new.ignore' is used to determine which
files and directories user wants not to be scanned as new mails.

Mark the corresponding test as no longer broken.
This work merges my previous attempts and Andreas Amann's work
