Just the same. Wherever you have an mbox file, replace it with a maildir directory. You can even go one better by having maildirs which themselves contain subdirectories, something that is impossible with mbox files. For example, you could have a maildir called work which contains unsorted messages, and also sub-maildirs for each client. Each client maildir can contain messages as well as yet more sub-maildirs for e.g. certain projects, time periods, contacts, etc. I don't believe netscape includes support for the maildir format, though, so you may not be able to do this, unless you do something like run an IMAP server such as courier and use netscape to access the mail through the IMAP interface. good times, Vineet -- http://www.doorstop.net/ -- "If we do not believe in freedom of speech for those we despise we do not believe in it at all." --Noam Chomsky
