The paths end with /enviornment/application_code.
So it could be /..../Prod/XX, /PROD/xx, /prod/Xx, whatever whoever created the folders felt like naming them. Also beneath them are Main or main or MAIN, and beneath that too - Scr, SCR, scr....
Then I might be supplied those same folder names as parameters in different combos.. and even if not, even if I always get the parameters in the same case, I still need to find out in what case exactly that folder is written in, because I need to transfer files there. Otherwise I would've used a lower case comparison like you suggested Corona688.
birei, so I can I use the code I wrote (I mean the same logic), but replace the whole opendir->while loop, with a grep?
Worst case scenario I'll give the users the responsibility (since they are in charge of whatever's in those directories) to find out how the folders are written and make sure the names they supply the script and the actual names correspond, themselves...

NEW(1) [nmh-1.5] NEW(1)
NAME
new - report on folders with new messages
fnext - set current folder to next folder with new messages
fprev - set current folder to previous folder with new messages
unseen - scan new messages in all folders with new messages
SYNOPSIS
new [sequences] [-mode mode] [-folders foldersfile] [-version] [-help]
fnext is equivalent to new -mode fnext
fprev is equivalent to new -mode fprev
unseen is equivalent to new -mode unseen
DESCRIPTION
New in its default mode produces a one-line-per-folder listing of all folders containing messages in the listed sequences or in the
sequences listed in the profile entry "Unseen-Sequence". Each line contains the folder, the number of messages in the desired sequences,
and the message lists from the .mh_sequences file. For example:
foo 11.* 40-50
bar 380. 760-772 824-828
total 391.
The `*' on foo indicates that it is the current folder. The last line shows the total number of messages in the desired sequences.
New crawls the folder hierarchy recursively to find all folders, and prints them in lexicographic order. Override this behavior by provid-
ing foldersfile containing the pre-sorted list of folders new should check, one per line.
In fnext and fprev modes, new instead changes to the next or previous matching folder, respectively.
In unseen mode, new executes scan sequences for each matching folder.
FILES
$HOME/.mh_profile The user profile
PROFILE COMPONENTS
Path: To determine the user's nmh directory
Current-Folder: To find the default current folder
Unseen-Sequence: The name of the unseen message sequence
