I tried to contact washington.edu about this but wasn't able to get any help. In which, I was trying to fix the mbox driver that is associated with Pine to make all of my new mail stay in /var/mail/username and not to transfer to /home/username/mbox. With this, I was also trying to move all of the mail in /home/username/mbox back to /var/mail/username. I tried to cp it to /var/mail/username but this made the box inaccessible. In monkeying around with the configuration, now I cannot receive mail in either box. If you could show me how to reset to my original configuration, I would be happy. If you could show me how I can move all of my email back to /var/mail/username with the mbox driver disabled so that imap can find it, I would be ecstatic. Thank you for your time and have a good day. Sincerely, Mark Carroll
