Perhaps wmmail has an option you could set? > also, how can i change the initial mailbox mutt chacks? (i thought it was > 'set mbox = ~/mail/mbox', but that does not do the trick). set mbox sets your default mailbox for storing. When you have read msgs left in /var/spool/mail/yourname when you exit, mutt asks you if you want them moved there. Aside from the order of the list following mailboxes= I'm not sure there is a way not to open your mail spool first. Try adding a '!' into the mailboxes line. Bang, '!', is a symbol for /v/s/m/yourname in mutt. -b -- i'm determined to stand, whether god |=| [EMAIL PROTECTED] will deliver me or not. -- bob dylan |=| www.cris.com/~bedlam
