What to do? Newsgroups: comp.os.386bsd.questions Organization: University of California, Irvine Keywords: mail mh-6.8 send post comp Lines: 23 Date: 12 May 93 02:54:24 GMT I have installed the binaries, and can 'inc', etc., but when I try to 'send' after 'comp'-ing, it hangs: When I try 'send -verbose -watch' I get the -- Posting for All Recipients -- message and then nothing else. If I leave it, it will eventually say 'Message not delivered to anyone'. I have tried looking at man pages for post(8) and send(1) but can't find anything there that would give me a hint as to how to set up stuff properly. Is this something where there might be conflicts with 'mail' since it's still left on the system? Or is it that I have to set some environmental variable, or that some directories need to be set up, or WHAT?? (BTW, I noticed that I need a /usr/spool/mail set of directories). Since there is no documentation with the port on agate, where can I find it? Do I have to actually buy an MH User's Manual mentioned in the man pages? Thanks for answering to anyone who's got any clues. Jeff Stern <jstern@aris.ss.uci.edu> "Timex Sinclair UNIX.. coming soon to a dealer near you."
