Hello James,
does the user read her mail directly on the server with NetScape or via
POP/IMAP? If the last one is true, you might try the following:
- if you have a recent version of imapd (4.6) it will take a file $HOME/mbox 
  as standard-INBOX if it finds one.
- Otherwise you could try to ``ln -s $HOME/Mailbox /var/spool/mail/$USER'',
  which is the next place, where UW-imapd       looks into (NetScape running
  ``locally'' mail should look into this as well).

Regards
Mirko
