Subject: how do I change the default INBOX source?

FreeBSD 4.4
Pine 4.44
tcsh 6.10.00

we'd like to change the default mailbox INBOX from
/var/mail/userid to /home/userid/.mbox but we don't
understand where pine is getting the location from.

It appears that pine is appending /var/mail/test
to /user/test/mbox, then using /usr/test/mbox as INBOX.

we thought it was from the MAIL environment variable,
which is set in /etc/login.conf, we tried changing that
and then did a "cap_mkdb /etc/login.conf". logged into
a test account. setenv verified that the MAIL environment
variable was now "/home/test/.mbox". we put mail into that
file for testing, but pine went to /var/mail/test anyway?

is there a configuration variable, or a compile time option?

thanks in advance.

Fuzzy
