In your procmailrc you can specify any pathname to by the "spool" file if you are on a system that does not have one. Then just set default options to 'inc' in your .mh_profile to use whatever pathname you choose (and to truncate it since inc only auto-truncates the system mail spool file). --ewh _______________________________________________ Nmh-workers mailing list Nmh-workers@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
