never really thought about it, but have you considered using a link?

create a file in users home directory, as root;

touch /home/ashley/mspool
chown ashley:mail mspool
ln -s -t /var/spool/mail/ mspool
mv /var/spool/mail/mspool /var/spool/mail/ashley
chown -h ashley:mail ashley

in replacement of above, this could be shortened with;

touch /home/ashley/ashley
chown ashley:mail ashley
ln -s -t /var/spool/mail/ ashley
chown -h ashley:mail ashley

in addition, this would need to be done with '/var/spool/mail/ashley' file
deleted or empty. if not deleted, '-f' must be added to 'ln' command.
