Sounds to me like the ``right'' thing to do would be to go through the code and make the appropriate $MBOXROOT references into $HOME references, and send the resulting patch upstream. Of course, this may be a pain, if they have not differentiated the two modes of use, so as an interim kludge how about putting a couple of symlinks in (or suggesting this in the README.Debian): ln -s mail/mbox ~/mbox ln -s ../Mail ~/mail/Mail Cheers, Phil.
