Drop the "mail" part from here. You already have it in default_mail_env,
and it's correct there. Here you're saying that the .../%d/%n is the
mail directory, not file. If it refuses to start up without the mail=
part, replace it with home=/tmp instead.

Yes, as long as nothing actually gets written there (and with
INDEX=MEMORY and POP3 nothing should get written there).
