sorry, that mdir s/b mbox mbox stores multiple emails in a single file while maildir separates each email into separate files. There are advantages and dis-advantages to each format. Personally, I use mbox but have a great number of locally stored emails. spending some time reading the above references for procmail, reading the mutt documentation and googling for mbox and maildir formats will greatly enhance your understanding and make it possible for you to make intelligent decisions rather than just jumping on-board whatever happens to be in front of you. google *is* your friend. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net
