The ~/.mozilla directory had 2 setups for the same pop3 server, one appended with "-1". I moved Inbox to Inbox2, deleted the index files and copied the /var/spool/mail/user file as ../../Inbox. 128 new messages were there on startup. I renamed /var/spool/mail/user, then created a new one with zero length with "touch user". Now, after retrieving mail, all go to Mozilla Mail, and the spooler file remains at zero length. Thank you for the help. Ed Harrison ed.tman@verizon.net
