Hi Ralph, Yes, that's what happened until I found nmh doesn't use maildir format. Originally I was trying to set up getmail and nmh and I already have mutt running. So next project is to move any content of those three subdirectories into ~/Mail and loose those subdirectories and in that way normalize environment for nmh. You are correct mhparam path returns Mail for a path.
