[Alpine-info] Backgrounding Pipes

[Dan Mahoney, System Admin]

Hey All,

How feasible would it be to have alpine's pipes run in the background as 
opposed to locking up Alpine when they run.  (I recognize that display 
filters cannot do this -- and that for any pipe in which you CARE about 
the output it's necessary to "watch", but I routinely pipe messages to 
"spamassassin -r" and there's nothing I care about there...although on my 
systems such things can take 60 seconds or more.
