I think this is the variable to change: ,----[ C-h v mail-source-directory RET ] | mail-source-directory is a variable defined in ‘mail-source.el’. | Its value is "/home/asjo/Mail/incoming" | Original value was "~/Mail/" | | You can customize this variable. | | Documentation: | Directory where incoming mail source files (if any) will be stored. `---- You might also consider looking at this one: ,----[ C-h v mail-source-delete-incoming RET ] | mail-source-delete-incoming is a variable defined in ‘mail-source.el’. | Its value is 10 | | You can customize this variable. | | | This variable was introduced, or its default value was changed, in | version 22.2 of Emacs. | | Documentation: | If non-nil, delete incoming files after handling. | If t, delete immediately, if nil, never delete. If a positive number, delete | files older than number of days. | | Removing of old files happens in ‘mail-source-callback’, i.e. no | old incoming files will be deleted unless you receive new mail. | You may also set this variable to nil and call | ‘mail-source-delete-old-incoming’ interactively. `---- Best regards, Adam -- "It's the Disneyland-law Adam Sjøgren So far out it makes anarchy a bore" asjo@koldfront.dk
