Dear friends,

on one of my old unix backup CDs there are two folders
called 'mail' and 'Mail'. I tried to change into
'mail' but always end up in 'Mail'...

Reading the cygwin faq I was informed, that Win32
doesn't make any case difference and therefore neither
cygwin. Does this mean, that there is no way to read
my good old 'mail'??!?

Or better: Is there a way to read both of them, 'Mail'
and 'mail' using cygwin (or whatever other program on
Windows XP)??

Thanks a lot for any answer - and please send a copy
to my email address...

Greetings, Dietrich
