Hopefully Gerrit will commit the patch to the cvs soon.

The directory for the common configuration is specified in the
huskymak.cfg. msged supports a local cfg (.msged) in the home dir, IIRC.

There's a cfg option in msged to specify msg highwater counters for multiple users.

From my experience husky is not fully multi-user/parallel-application
capable, i.e. several applications running on the msg base at the same time
causes sometimes trouble. For example, msged has problems with the
highwater marks when writing a new message and hpt tosses new echomail at
the same time. I'm managing most automatic stuff with lock files to
minimize the possibility of parallel processing. I think a fully
multi-whatever capable msg base would require a major rewrite of smapi and
its API, would have to become a daemon like a SQL database.

Regards,
Markus
