I know how to set my INBOX PATH to the UNIX mail file on their systems. I don't want to directly modify that though because of file locking and such. The way my school has it set up, when you type pine, pine automagically moves the contents of the INBOX to a file called mbox, and that's where the messages are modified, thereby avoiding locking problems. I want to make pine do the same thing on my system: move my mail from my mail spool (located on AFS) to a file in my home directory called mbox.
