/var/spool/mail problem!

Post by geofo » Tue, 09 Nov 1999 04:00:00



Hi,
I want to move the email in /var/spool/mail/$USER
to their home directory.
How can i do this?

Thanks,

1. automount /var/spool/mail problem

i'd like to automount my mail server's /var/spool/mail to a local
machine's /var/spool/mail and i have my auto.master setup
 as:
 /var/spool auto.mail --timeout 60
 and my auto.mail as
 mail  -rw,soft,bg  mail:/var/spool/mail
 and it does mount /var/spool/mail, however all the other directories
under /var/spool disappear. ie, lpd etc do not show
 up.
 Is there a way to correct this very undesirable behaviour?
 cheers.
