I agree with Mark's response. But, if it's any help, I do exactly what you do except that I use tmail rather than dmail for local delivery. Setup of tmail is easy via two lines in sendmail.mc and is fast, reliable and delivers directly to users' home directory mix format inboxes.
To set everything to mix - I would suggest just adding it to the Makefile in the line EXTRASPECIALS="CREATEPROTO=mixproto" With that line, tmail (I assume dmail as well) creates a mix format inbox if it does not already exist. Any other user created folders are also mix format. That simple.

Hi I'm installing a new mail server and I'm trying to compile imap 2006c1 properly so that it uses the mix format and I'm not quite sure if what I'm doing is correct. I would like to deliver email directly to user's home directory. We also use procmail to filter user's emails. Emails mark as spam are automatically delivered to the "Spam" folder. I'm modifying the env_unix.c file currently. I changed the lines in char *sysinbox () to: sprintf (tmp,"%s/INBOX",myhomedir()); /* new INBOX location */ If I want everything to be MIX format in my new system, is the INBOX called %s/INBOX or %s/INBOX/. Does it matter? I then need to use dmail to deliver email. Does anyone have the procmail recipe they use? Does dmail know what to do automagically or do I have to mkdir ~username/INBOX? thanks! nancy -- ------------------------------------- Nancy Lin DECF 1109A Etcheverry Hall 510-642-7291 Office Hours: 2PM-4PM Mon-Thu ------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ Imap-uw mailing list [email protected] https://mailman1.u.washington.edu/mailman/listinfo/imap-uw _______________________________________________ Imap-uw mailing list [email protected] https://mailman1.u.washington.edu/mailman/listinfo/imap-uw
