[oclug] mutt problems

Fri Aug 23 11:09:21 EDT 2002

Below is a muttrc file I created using mutt builder.  I've have a problem, 
where even thought the file below says that my mail directory is 
/home/bruce/Mail Mutt is still looking for it in /var/mail?  Why is this and 
how do I change it?

Thanks
bruce
