Thanks for your help....

But I acted in a foolish way. I tried to change the default dir by this
command: uqwk2 -M/usr/spool/mail/s/d

What happened?
UQWK indeed found my mail packet, but as I did NOT use the +L switch,
I received a QWK mail packet.
I zipped up 'personal.ndx' and 'messages.dat' and downloaded that to my PC.

Is there a way to convert QWK to SOUP?
