Re: How can I stop mutt asking me about "~/Mail"?
Please PMFJI.
I do NOT have ~/Mail directory set up.
I do have MAIL=~/Mail in my environment.
I also have
set folder=~\Mail in my /etc/mutt/muttrc
and nothing except source that file and color directives in ~/.muttrc.
When I start Mutt, I get
"/home/lba/Mail does not exist, create it (YES,n)
I answer yes or just ENTER and a /home/lba/Mail directory is created as
expected.
However Mutt says /home/lba/Mail is not a directory even though it exists
with permissions 700 and owner lba.
I've removed /home/lba/Mail several times and restarted Mutt with the above
results.
Something is missing but I don't know what.
Can anyone tell me what's wrong?
