      Using the example from man page, it must be a directory. Pretty bad 
solution. Especially with Pine :) you DO have a folder in a folder list, 
but pine can't do a thing with it because it is not a folder but a dir 
:)) And if you put that directory in your folder collections, you got a 
funny bunch of folders. Nice'n'neat: one mesage -- one folder. :)))

Actually, it depends how you sort your mail etc.  My saved messages are it
~/mail.  All of my incoming mail is sorted into ~/Mail/IN.<list> for all
the various lists. I just enabled multiple inboxes in Pine, and added them
in the top screen, hey presto.  And the backup dir doesn't show as a
folder that way, because its not listed as an incoming folder :)
