Maildir on another email

I created a catch-all email account. I am interested in manually dealing with all of the emails from the Maildir. My question is how do I manually access this folder, when I can not find it in my home folder in the shell?

Any and all help is appreciated.

Forward whatever is received by the "catch-all" address to a "real" shell user email account, and manipulate *that* Maildir.

"Email only" email accounts on DreamHost don't have a Maildir that you can access.wink

I was afraid that that's what I was going to have to do.

Thanks for such a quick response!

No problem, and I'm sorry I couldn't deliver "better" news! wink
