I have access to local mail via "mutt" (which I don't use very often nowadays) so in order to access local "mbox" from Thunderbird I had to create an account (via Add Other Accounts) from Thunderbird settings. Is it the way to do it?
Can I just create in my local folder /home/thelma/.thunderbird a link to /var/spool/mail ? Anyhow, when I added local account: thelma@localhost I could see all the local mail but when I deleted them (mostly cron job mails) they all came back. How these programs decide which one own a Lock.file? -- Thelma
