Ever heard that saying about not biting the hand that feeds you? If

OK, so you moved the user's mailboxes to ~user/Mailbox and created the
symlinks in /var/spool/mail? And now /var/spool/mail is empty?
Strange.
Personally, I don't like the "symlinks in /var/spool/mail" method. I
blow /var/spool/mail away and convince the MUA's to look in
~/Mailbox.
