I don't have a ready answer to your question (though I don't see why it would give you issues) but you can always eliminate the possibility using something like this: mailboxes ~/Mail/In/inbox \ `find ~/Mail/Li ~/Mail/In -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 1 -type d -not -name inbox -print` The example assumes Maildir (change '-type d' to '-type f' for mbox) and that you don't have a mailbox Li/inbox, but you get the idea. -- Michael Kjörling .. michael@xxxxxxxxxxx .. http://michael.kjorling.se * .....
