AUTHORS

countmail was first written by Noah Friedman <friedman@splode.com> in 1993. This version was written by Charles M. Hannum <mycroft@NetBSD.org>.

CAVEATS

The read loop is horrendously slow on every shell implementation tried. countmail uses from(1) and wc(1) instead, though these are not shell builtins.
