% Thanks for the feedback. Here's the results:

Sure thing!

% /tmp/sean is not a mailbox.

Hokay.  Now we see something unexpected.

Please now run

  echo "###" ; head -3 /var/mail/sean ; echo "###"

and paste in the results.  I suspect that the first five characters of
the file will not be "From" and a space.

% bash-2.05$ ls -lFda /var/mail `which mutt` `which mutt_dotlock`
% -r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  427564 Sep 13 22:25 /usr/local/bin/mutt*

That's good.


% -rwxr-sr-x  1 root  mail     7364 Sep 13 22:25 /usr/local/bin/mutt_dotlock*

That's great.


% drwxrwxr-x  2 root  mail      512 Nov 13 23:22 /var/mail/

That's expected.  All looks good there.

% 
% bash-2.05$ mutt -v
% Mutt 1.2.5i (2000-07-28)

This is a bit old, but it should still work.


:-D
