I do that on one of my machines, the idea being that - /home is bigger than /var - I´d rather have /home full than /var if some luser manages to create a mail loop or mail the newest windos service-pack to his whole address book[0] I´ve simply moved the spool-files to /home/$user/mailspool and symlinked them from /var/spool/mail but YMMV, I´m using stock sendmail. hth, &rw 0: yes, I´ve seen that happen. twice[1]. 1: yes, quotas are in place now. -- / Ing.
