Not only that one. I have perhaps a dozen input mboxes under /home/user/Mail/in_whatever, where procmail distributes email, and Pine reads (and deletes) from there. Lockfiles are needed. I think I have it right, but not 100% sure.

Then, other times I use kmail, with the same folders. Do kmail uses the same lockfiles, or do I have to tell it? I think the later.

No, you must tell kmail to use locks and the method. See: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/~pat/kmail.lock.jpg -- Patrick Shanahan Registered Linux User #207535 http://wahoo.no-ip.org @ http://counter.li.org HOG # US1244711 Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2
