Sure! My unix mailbox tree looks like this:
mail
|-- Active
|-- Biz
| |-- SunEd
| |-- SynapSys
| | |-- Amanda
o o o
Where 'mail' is a unix directory containing a mailbox format
file called 'Active' and another Unix directory called 'Biz'. The Unix
folder 'Biz' contains a mailbox format file called 'SunEd' as well as
a Unix directory called 'SynapSys'. Which in turn, contains a mailbox
format file called 'Amanda'.
All of the mailbox format files contain, of course, email. The
unix directories contain either mailboxes or directories.
Now, via Balsa, I click on a unix directory in my tree, for
example, 'Biz'. I then right click on 'Biz' and select New --> Local
Maildir Mailbox. My intent is to create a mailbox format file under
the 'Biz' sub-directory. Instead, it creates the mailbox under the
primary 'mail' directory. This seems wrong. :)
Sorry if the explaination is pedantic. I wasn't sure how detailed
you wanted me to be.
Hwyl!
