Currently I want to filter inbound mail for user account and save mail as

'+%T_%m%d%Y' which should re-direct inbound messages and save them.
Instead the messages are being sent one dir short of intended destination
and when we move them they re-appear? Can anyone help....
Enlightenment on the subject of changing the default spool file location might
be gained by searching the list archives.
Re-reading the original query a little closer I see you were asking about
changing the default location for a specific account, not for all accounts on
the system.
In this case, I'm not sure what the use of formail in this instance does. It
appears you are trying to remove a header field, but you have defined this
field as two literal double-quotes. I'm not sure what that is supposed to
accomplish.
You appear to be trying to save the file as "HH:MM:SS_DDMMYYYY" in the
directory /u02/app/EMSEUWEB/tmp/uk_edi/inbound, however they are ending up in
.../uk_edi, instead of .../uk_edi/inbound?
I'm also not sure what you mean by "when we move them they re-appear".
