Do you have the right name for this file? If so, it hasn't helped -- details follow. If not, there is still hope if I can find the right name. When I exit mutt, it asks me if it should move the mail I've read to mbox. If I say 'y', all the mail I've read ends up in mbox, as it's supposed to. I can't find any file /home/hendrik/mail. Therre is a directory /home/hendrik/Mail, but it doesn't contain the missing mail. It just contains files containing messages I've explicitly saved using mutt's 's' command. > > Greetings > Michelle > > -- > Linux-User #280138 with the Linux Counter, http://counter.li.org/ > ##################### Debian GNU/Linux Consultant ##################### > Michelle Konzack Apt. 917 ICQ #328449886 > 50, rue de Soultz MSM LinuxMichi > 0033/3/88452356 67100 Strasbourg/France IRC #Debian (irc.icq.com) > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > with a subject of "unsubscribe".
