I think it's created by a POP or IMAP client usually. I don't use IMAP or POP anymore since it's more convenient to my mutt setup to put maildirs inside mail/, but courier IMAP puts everything in folders starting with dot (or at least that's how it works on our system, so 'Trash' over IMAP would be Maildir/.Trash. I do know that mutt lets you choose if you want to set the 'Trashed' flag which is an option only available if you're using Maildir, so that may also use the .Trash option?? I put all my mail in 'mail/Trash/' but there is still a .Trash directory in my maildir; I'm not sure when or how it got there. It's totally empty though. zugzug# tree . |-- cur |-- maildirfolder |-- new `-- tmp 3 directories, 1 file zugzug# pwd /home/william/Maildir/.Trash When I used dot subfolders from courier IMAP i had to change my mutt file mask around to display them properly. I haven't used the zsh functions mentioned; just thought I'd throw in my $0.02 regarding the Maildir question... w ----- End forwarded message -----
