Subject: 23.0.90; rmail-set-label not functioning
Date: Mon,  2 Feb 2009 16:48:03 +0000
I have the line
(rmail-set-label "exim" t)
in my spam filtering and message classificaton code.  That now fails
saying "exin" is the wrong type
I note that the attributes are strings but in rmail-set-label I get a
failure with
        (regexp (concat ", " (regexp-quote (symbol-name label)) ","))
as a string does not have a symbol-name

Dos thsi mean that unlike previous version a label must be a symbol
and an attribute is a string?
