Re: Where does Mail store deleted messages?

If I understand this correctly, the "Trash" mailbox, for example, becomes "Papierkorb" in German, but the folder in /Library/Mail/ where its messages are stored is still named "Deleted Messages.mbox" in English. (?)

That's correct.

If 'mbox' is a reference to a mailbox, then the Mail command ...

	name of mbox

always - always - ALWAYS returns the name of a folder located somewhere within the /Library/Mail/ folder.

This allows me to get exactly what I want -- the path to a folder of message files. I couldn't care less what the visible mailbox names are! In other words it is precisely "the names on disk" which do concern me.

Precisely. :)
