The Mail directory also has only one folder and on exit is empty. /var/mail still has copies. Can anyone clear up my confusions ; Where should mail be located ? How can I configure a 'sent items' for Mutt? How can I create an address book for Mutt? I know this would be better on the Mutt list but I also know there are some big Mutt fans here and asI am trying this on FreeBSD maybe more relevent ? And lastly, APM or ACPI what the best one to go=20 with on my HP OmniBook 6000 and how to configure suspend etc etc Thanks a mill for any advice !
