System: NetBSD dogfish-head.cs.stevens.edu 2.1_STABLE NetBSD 2.1_STABLE (BOCK) #12: Thu Oct 27 18:21:43 EDT 2005 jschauma@doppelbock.hpcf.cs.stevens-tech.edu:/usr/2.0/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/obj/BOCK i386

>Description:

	/usr/pkgsrc/etc/mk/defaults/mk.conf contains the following variable,
	advertized as being used in mail/imap-uw:

	#IMAP_UW_MAILSPOOLHOME=.MailBox
	# To default user mailboxes to their home directory,
	# specify the name of the mailbox file.
	# Possible: Any valid filename, not defined
	# Default: not defined

	Unfortunately it turns out that this no longer works, as the code
	has been changed and the patching caused by setting this variable is
	useless.

>How-To-Repeat:
	set IMAP_UW_MAILSPOOLHOME=.mail, build imap-uw and expect it to
	look in ${HOME}/.mail for mail instead of /var/spool/mail/whoever
>Fix:

	Unclear.
	See http://mail-index.NetBSD.org/tech-pkg/2004/01/21/0004.html
	for a discussion of the issue.
