Subject: folder-collections=Mail/[]

Hello,

while configuring pine one problem occured with the setting 
folder-collections=Mail/[] in my pinerc. During startup pine gives the
message

"Creating subdirectory "/usr/people/thomas/mail" where pine will store
 its mail folders."

and actually creates this directory, although it will never use it (since 
there is this folder-collections entry, which directs all mail into ~./Mail).

Is there a problem with my configuration or is it just a bug in pine?

Thanks in advance,
Thomas Mueller

You also have to set mail-directory=Mail
