Hi, I am running Exim 4.62 MTA on FBSD 6.0_release. When I create a new user using useradd, a mailbox file for the new user is created in /var/mail. As I am using Maildir with maildirs in /var/mail, I do not want that. My question is, where is this behavior of useradd configured? I cannot find this in the handbook. There is no /etc/useradd.conf neither an /etc/pw.conf on my system and also the contents of /usr/share/skel do not seem to make a difference. Many thanks i.a. Niek
