| Mar 6, 2020 at 17:23 | comment | added | tdeary | @Joe Yes but that's what I'm asking how to do. I tried looking over the mailutils docs, Google, and here on SE and I couldn't find anything that said how to do this. Maybe I just missed it but that's why I'm asking the question. | |

| Mar 2, 2020 at 20:56 | comment | added | tdeary | @Joe I wasn't trying to edit ~/.mbox, that's what I wanted to rename my user mailbox file to so it wouldn't be visible all the time, and I wanted to know if there were any config options that would let me do that. | |

| Mar 2, 2020 at 6:58 | comment | added | Joe | ~/.mailrc is the configuration file you should be altering not ~/.mbox | |
