        I don't know how this program you mentioned works with
        maildirs, but the inbox maildir is usually called ./Maildir/
        (note the ending slash), relative to the home directory of the
        user to whom qmail-local is doing the delivery.

        This is just a standard convention made by Dan Bernstein, but
        the maildir can be named whatever the user wants if he puts
        the appropriate instructions in his $HOME/.qmail file.


        Hope this helps, Roger...

P.S.: I'd love if kmail supported maildirs directly, without a dirty
hack of converting the maildir messages to a mbox.
