Seeing this I just realized that problems may arise if the user deletes her INBOX and then re-creates it. Is that legal in IMAP? I would still separate the two steps; test -d IMAPdir || mkdir IMAPdir test -e IMAPdir/INBOX || ln -sf ../Maildir IMAPdir/INBOX -f to force the link even if another invocation just created the link, and to avoid the error message/return code. > Thanks for everyone's help.
