    There seems to be some confusion over what "default" means. Neither of
    those packages are available without doing some installs, so I think
    you are misunderstanding it.

    Take a look at the c-client documentation drivers.txt, which describes
    how a driver is selected for mail, and how uw-imap decides what
    constitutes INBOX.

    Take a look at src/osdep/unix/env_unix.c to play more games with it.

    Finally, understand that INBOX (or inbox, or InBoX) is the INBOX. It's
    where the IMAP server puts new mail by default, where the IMAP client
    looks for new mail by default, and this is as it should be. Your IMAP
    client should not be configured to look in Mailbox to get new mail.
