This is not Squirellmail, it's Unix's mail system. I have no idea what
data this folder contains (how is that a folder anyways?) and deleting it
never does anything.

It is generated every time you use the program "mail" from the prompt, i
think?

dunno I erased it and it's not coming back and I use Pine and that webmail
solution i've suggested - www.mycgiserver.com/~active
