procmail delivering outside of MAILDIR

im having trouble getting rid of having two visible inboxes caused by
procmail and wu-imap.
i have MAILDIR=$HOME/mail. therefore my catch-all rule in .procmailrc:
:0
INBOX
ends up delivering mail to ~/mail/INBOX.
Fine. Problem is, ~/INBOX keeps appearing as it is crated by wu-imap.
Therefore, how can I either:
1) tell procmail to deliver to ~/INBOX
2) tell wu-imap to deliver to ~/mail/INBOX

I realize I could probably have MAILDIR=~ and then specify all my mailboxes
in .procmailrc with mail/ prefixes, but this seems to be a bit of a kludge.

Re: procmail delivering outside of MAILDIR

Hi,

Just use an absolute path in the procmail rule. So something like:

:0
/home/urgrue/INBOX

or

:0
$HOME/INBOX

We don't use wu-imap here any more so I can't help with that.

Cheers
