Courier IMAP - accessing wrong mailbox


Hi All,

I just installed my new mailserver and I have the following problem: When I connect with my mail-client, I the the contents of /var/spool/mail/<username> (this is where Postfix stored the mails that came until I change to the config to drop the mail with procmail to ~/Maildir/).

Now, how do I get Courier to show me what's in the Maildir/? And by the way: I thought Courier was Maildir-only?
It looks like Courier by itself "found" /var/spool/mail/ to be the correct directory...but I have noe clue where this is saved...Up to now I didn't dare to just delete the /var/spool/mail...


Thanks a lot in advance,
smilodon



PS: I did also post this question in the heise.de-forum, but as I didn't get an answer there I'm asking here
