    Emacs 'movemail' is now a configure-time option · 9f771f64

    The new configure option --with-mailutils lets the builder say
    that Emacs should assume that GNU Mailutils is installed, instead
    of continuing to build and install its own limited and insecure
    substitute for 'movemail'.

    * configure.ac: Add --with-mailutils option.

    POP and IMAP URLs.
