Here is how I told my script to convert them: > /var/spool/mail/<user> -> /home/<user>/Maildir(cur,tmp,new) > /home/<user>/mbox1 -> /home/<user>/Maildir/mbox1(cur,tmp,new) > /home/<user>/mbox2 -> /home/<user>/Maildir/mbox2(cur,tmp,new)
Well, you are very close. What you want is: /home/<user>/Maildir/ <- This is "INBOX" /home/<user>/Maildir/.mbox1/ <- This is "INBOX.mbox1" /home/<user>/Maildir/.mbox1.2004/ <- This is "INBOX.mbox1.2004" /home/<user>/Maildir/.mbox2/ <- This is "INBOX.mbox2" Basically, courier uses Maildir/(tmp,new,cur) for INBOX, and Maildir/.stuff/(tmp,new,cur) for INBOX.stuff So, in the above case, you could just as easily: cd /home/<user>/Maildir mv mbox1 .mbox1 mv mbox2 .mbox2 etc... -- Ensign Walnut approaches Dr. Crusher with caution...
