For incoming mesages: /var/spool/mail/[login]
For stored messages:  /home/sites/siteX/users/[login]/mail
                  or  ~[login]/mail
[login] is the userID like "admin" (the above path is not right for the
"admin" user.) 

The second is the one you need to tell IMAP if you use pine. If you use
netscape (unlikely on a Raq) it would be nsmail instead of mail.
