I would like to be more certain that nobody is going to be upset by any changes to the mail spool specification in FHS, so could you tell me your distribution's preference on this?
a) /var/mail (FHS 2.0) b) /var/spool/mail (current Linux practice and FSSTND 1.x) c) something else There have been many permutations of each of the above options, so please let me know which one you prefer (and why). I'd like to finish this email thread as soon as possible -- I think this issue is more tied with distribution preference than many other issues because of the number of affected components. - Dan
