ok, it works this way. thanks. and it works only _this_ way, no other way? i mean i have to create home dirs for each and every user whom i want to use this mbx format? there's no way to tell imap/pop3/sendmail to use mbx directly in /var/spool/mail? another q: if i have .procmailrc, and i'm sorting my mail to ~/mail/* with it, how can i use dmail/tmail to put those mailboxes in mbx format? and will i be able to open them with imap?
