Not sure why you would want to delete a mailbox unless the user is no
longer on the system?

You wouldn't use ftp to read the mailbox...but you could download it.
the mailbox is owned by the user...so you'd need to ftp in as the
user name

I guess I'm confused...do you want to delete the mailbox, modify the
contents or simply read it?

Depending on what you want to do, you'd have to be logged on
as user, or admin, or su to root.
