Maildir uses the directory ~/Maildir/ by default, so add the following line to your postfix's main.cf: home_mailbox = Maildir/ from now on, postfix will deliver to Maildir/ in Maildir format (because of the trailing slash, Maildir's "flag") by default. however, since you are using procmail, you don't have to make that site-wide, because you can simply postfix your mailboxes with a slash to make them Maildirs. for instance, the following procmailrc will deliver to Maildirs. === VERBOSE=no LOGABSTRACT=yes MAILDIR=$HOME/Mail DEFAULT=$MAILDIR/inbox/ :0 * ^Return-Path:[EMAIL PROTECTED] $MAILDIR/debian/ === which will write all messages to debian user into the ~/Mail/debian/ Maildir (containing cur, tmp, and new), and everything else into ~/Mail/inbox/ and yes, Maildir is better by a factor of two thousand and one. martin; (greetings from the heart of the sun.) \____ echo mailto: !#^."<*>"|tr "<*> mailto:"; [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- someday we'll find it the rainbow connection the lovers, the dreamers, and me! -- kermit
