  s
  and at the prompt answer
  =mailboxname
  I.E. put an '=' before the name of the mailbox.

  I use procmail
  1).forward file
    |IFS=' ' && exec /usr/bin/procmail || exit 75 #username"
        NOTE: check path to procmail
           which procmail
  2)My .procmailrc
  # Set to yes when debugging
  # See man 5 procmailrc
  VERBOSE=no
  # Remove ## when debugging; set to no if you want minimal logging
  ## LOGABSTRACT=all
  MAILDIR=$HOME/Mail
  # Directory for storing procmail-related files
  PMDIR=$HOME/.procmail
  DEFAULT_MAILBOX=$MAILDIR/inbox/
  # Put ## before LOGFILE if you want no logging (not recommended)
  LOGFILE=$PMDIR/log
  INCLUDERC=$PMDIR/lists.rc
  INCLUDERC=$PMDIR/default.rc
  # End procmailrc
