$Id: README,v 1.37 2007-05-27 08:42:22 roland Exp $. This package was inspired by the Big Brother Database package available for various Emacs mailers, and by Brandon Long's "external query" patch for the mutt mail user agent (Note that this patch has been incorporated into the main-line mutt versions as of mutt 0.93.). The package doesn't use any formal database libraries or languages, although it should be quite easy to extend it to use, e.g., an installed PostgreSQL server as it's backend. For querying the Little Brother, just type "lbdbq ". lbdbq will now attempt to invoke various modules to gather information about persons matching " ". E.g., it may look at a list of addresses from which you have received mail, it may look at YP maps, or it may try to finger @ . The behavior is configurable: Upon startup, lbdbq will source the shell scripts.
