Options: 1. tell mutt your spool is /var/mail/paulf: set spoolfile="/var/mail/paulf" (if that's a Maildir, end it with a /) 2. tell fetchmail to deliver via a local agent that will put things where you want them, like procmail or mailfilter or... anyway, use the 'mda' config in fetchmail's config file to specify that. -dsr-
