4.7. Mailbox Shortcuts
There are a number of built in shortcuts which refer to specific
mailboxes. These shortcuts can be used anywhere you are prompted for
a file or mailbox path.
· ! -- refers to your ``$spool'' (incoming) mailbox
· > -- refers to your ``$mbox'' file
· < -- refers to your ``$record'' file
· - -- refers to the file you've last visited
· ~ -- refers to your home directory
· = or + -- refers to your ``$folder'' directory
· @alias -- refers to the ``default save folder'' as determined by
the address of the alias
-------------------------------- snip ----------------------------------
So just type c!<Return> to return to your spool mailbox.
I've also set up a macro:
macro index I "c!\n" "Change to incoming mailfolder"
bye,
Jan
