Yes

The idea is fine - a couple of the details are wrong.

First, your example is testing to see if $MailDir contains 'doublequote'
'slash' 'doublequote' when it just contains 'slash'.  You don't want
those double quotes on the condition line!

Secondly, and clearly you know this :-), you want to set $Lock to be ':'
only if $MailDir does *NOT* contain a slash!  Your example sets it when
$MailDir does contain a slash.

So you want something like:

    MailDir="/"
    :0
    * ! MailDir ?? /
    { Lock=":" }

    :0 $Lock
    * ^Subject: Make money fast
    spam$MailDir

Hope that helps,
Martin
