who runs .profile?

I'm running A/UX and a strange thing (tm) is happening.  When I login
(my login shell is ksh) my .profile is not being run.  And when I run
mail, my .mailrc isn't being run.  $HOME is correctly set to my home
directory, I own my .* files and they have read permission.  Is it
my breath?
