Not Reading Mail
----------------

   If you start using any of the mail backends, they have the annoying
habit of assuming that you want to read mail with them.  This might not
be unreasonable, but it might not be what you want.

   If you set `nnmail-spool-file' to `nil', none of the backends will
ever attempt to read incoming mail, which should help.

   This might be too much, if, for instance, you are reading mail quite
happily with `nnml' and just want to peek at some old RMAIL file you
have stashed away with `nnbabyl'.  All backends have variables called
backend-`get-new-mail'.  If you want to disable the `nnbabyl' mail
reading, you edit the virtual server for the group to have a setting
where `nnbabyl-get-new-mail' to `nil'.

   All the mail backends will call `nn'*`-prepare-save-mail-hook'
narrowed to the article to be saved before saving it when reading
incoming mail.
