True, but there is no central place to set $MAIL (and I think $MAILDIR
is the correct place for maildirs???). But, this takes us back into
the debate on /etc/environment :-(
[ Please send followups to the following to debian-devel.... ]
You can set this up in /etc/login.defs, but this only applies
(AFAIK) for console and telnet logins, and not ssh.
Perhaps, with PAM, something better could be done (if I said why I
think this is insufficient though, we would be heading way off topic
for this thread).
What is an LDA?
