Good idea, found the setting in login.defs. I did a: MAIL_DIR /var/spool/mail #MAIL_FILE .mail MAILFILE /home/rland/muttmail/inbox ...hoping that this setting would duplicate the mail sent to root, so that one day when I change my rland inbox to another name and forget to update login.defs, no mail will be lost for a program that might choose to use the MAIL env variable instead of using port 25. Unfortunatly man login.defs does not mention this duplication and I have no idea which programs use $MAILDIR to test. But, just noticed when logging in as root I get a: "configuration error - unknown item 'MAILFILE' (notify administrator)".

At least _someone_ using a older mua as I do - that nice!... Robert -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
