-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
I have installed elm 2.4 pl 24 on an intel box running FreeBSD 2.1.
When I run the command "elm", the program responds as follows:
"Waiting to read mailbox wile mail is being recieved: attempt #"
It trys seven times then responds with
"Giving up after 7 iteratins."
"Please try to read your mail again in a few minutes."
I've set my MAIL env variable to /var/mail/jim (my mail account) but
it doesn't seem to make a difference.
I'd appreciate any ideas anybody has.
Thanks,
Jim Manley
