I have worked on archmail script a little bit yesterday and the
results are attached (I used zip to ensure verbatim transport).
I have divided script into two, because I was not able to debugg
your find command. However, I have now problem with bash.
Consider following screenshot:
mail $ test -f ./sluzebni/; echo $?
1
mail $ test -d ./sluzebni/; echo $?
0
mail $ ll
total 332

If understand my bash manpage well, the second command should
produce 1 too. Have you any idea why it doesn't? I am using bash
2.04.11(1)-release on RedHat GNU/Linux 7.0.
