[Alpine-info] Can not create second INBOX in mix format

[Christopher X. Candreva]

According to a post to this list back in april :

http://mailman2.u.washington.edu/pipermail/alpine-info/2008-April/000622.html


>  Nothing prevents the user from creating an alternative-format INBOX. The

>  messages there from the spool directory. 


Except when I try to do create #driver.mix/INBOX I am told that a mailbox 
called INBOX already exists, so it can't create one. The same error is 
returned by mailutil

Is there another way to create a mix-format INBOX that alpine and/or 
ipop3d/imapd will snarf new mail to ?
