Dear Suresh
Thanks for the mail ,
without knowing the meaning of "maildirs" only I was
mentioning about the term "maildirs". sorry for the
mistake
Actually I want my users mail to go to
"/var/spool/mail/username" , so that when I log in as
user and type "mail" command I should see the mail
my problem is that users mail is not
coming to
"/var/spool/mail/username" ,
instead it goes to "/var/spool/mail/root" and when
I log in as root I see all the mails which I had send
from outside to the users
Please Guide me
Thanks A lot
