Can one override the default folder-name to directory mappings that are kept in ~/.AMS.prof? I'm speaking of the variables $local, $external, and $official that are identified in mailconf.c. Assuming these variables can't be overridden, what part of andrew would need to be rebuilt in order the change the mappings listed in ~/.AMS.prof?

These are all things you can set in the AndrewSetup file. For example, our AndrewSetup file includes the following lines: LocalBboardRoot: /fs/bambam/usr3/andrew-bb/.MESSAGES DefaultMSPath: $MAIL:$LOCAL This redefines $local and makes $external and $official irrelevant. Type "help AndreSetup" for more details. -- Nathaniel

Though not mentioned in NSB's post (which is correct) - The AndrewSetup file is read at runtime - thus, once changed, you do NOT need to rebuild anything. --fish
