humm,
sorry all, poured the porto to early !
you can create folders with spaces in the name, using double-quotes.
Also, I was using a test account for whom the home directory contained
the mail files. When I tried with another user, the script was on its
way to create folders for all the folders under the users directory.
I'll go for a nap, now !
See ya !
