Yes, seems so...

Great, thanks.  I hope it's not my fault at the end.  Tell me if you
have any question.

Setting up mairix is easy.  You only need to save the .mairixrc.  Note
that the "mfolder" path is not ~-exanded, however, must be
/home/user/etc.  "base" is where you stored mails live.

Then run the "mairix" binary and see if it creates an index.  If you
don't have thousands of messages that will terminate more or less
instantly.  That's already all.

Michael.
