Path to mailfile in OS X

Hi,

what’s the syntax for the the path to the local mailfile on Mac OS X? On my PC it woud be like

c:\Program\Notes\Data\xxxxxx.nsf or similar. So how is it in OS X, do I include the disk partition name, is it with slash or backslash and so on? I run a Swedish OS X 10.2.5, does that mean I should put the translated Swedish word for “Applications” (“Program” in Swedish)in the path, even though the Notes Installer claimed it put the stuff in the “Applications” folder when it actually ended up in the “Program” folder anyway?

TIA

A colon is the folder seperator on a Mac. A preceding colon denotes the Notes Data folder as the root, which is the opposite of how it is under Windows! So, if your mail file is in your Notes Data folder, then what you need is simply:

:xxxx.nsf

If you want to hard code the path, then yes, you can use the volume name. Something like:

Hard Disk:Applications:Notes:Data:xxxx.nsf
