Well, thanks! Always good to have a new user.

So, these are written in a kind of strange little language. It's documented
relatively completely in mh-format(5). As of 1.6 we include fmttest(1)
which you can use to help debug your format script.

Well, that already pretty much does that. The %(localmbox) entry uses
the Local-Mailbox profile entry (there is a fallback generated based on
your local username and hostname). So if you put:
Local-Mailbox: My Name <[email protected]>
It should do exactly what you want.

Well, the manual would explain that, but it's pretty dense. Here's
something that should work:
%<{delivered-to}%|%(void(localmbox))%>%(void(width))%(putaddr From: )
Again, check out mh-format(5) and fmttest(1); the former explains the
syntax, the latter shows you what the script is doing. You also might find
the information in Jerry Peek's book useful; it's old, but most of it is
still relevant:
