It won't matter because then you simply click on the folder icon to navigate to your system mail and voilà (assuming that you've forwarded your root mail to your regular user account). I'm not on my Linux box right now, plus I un-installed it after I tested it as I prefer Evolution on my Linux platform (I use Thunderbird when in Windows) so I can't answer any better than that right now but I'm sure someone else can fill in the blanks at this point. It will work. I got it to work on mine no problem. Jacques B.
