I have been using mbox since my early redhat days.. I had been seeing people talk 
about .maildir and was thinking about trying it out.. 

After installing all my normal apps (postfix, procmail, imap, pine). I have all of 
them reading my inbox, but that's it. I found an article written by Spider that says 
that folders are .Folder (for example) in the $HOME/.maildir. ex 
$HOME/.maildir/.Folder. Procmail writes the (new,tmp,cur) directories in the folder 
its suppose to, but pine, nor mutt (just to see if pine wasn't working right) was 
reading my folders.. Pine seems to work with my inbox, as I said before, but wants my 
folders in $HOME/mail in the normal mbox fashion... I can't figure out what mutt is 
doing, but that's probably because I never used it before. It see's my inbox as well, 
but didn't see my folders.. I hit c and then ?, and it didn't show me any of my 
folders.. I am starting to think maybe the way I am doing my folders is the problem... 
imap isn't working right either, but I have not messed with it yet as I am trying to 
figure out this problem first.

I am a big folder guy and this just doesn't work.. 

Thanks,
Jeff
