What would be really nice, would be all of the stuff from PGP somehow  
rolled into elm.  Of course, we wouldn't want to get involved in all the  
legal hassles the author of PGP has brought upon himself.  But it would be  
nice to build into elm:

	- Public Key Encryption
	- Public Key Distribution
	- Digital Signatures based upon Public/Secret Keys

I'm sure Syd has plenty of time to do this....right Syd :-)
So, can we expect it around the first of the year? :-)

I have just started using Elm, and am having problems with one of my aliases.
Every time that I try to send mail in Elm using the alias of this address, it
gets spewed back to me by the X-400 Gateway.  However, if I use the same addressand just type the it via unix (mail <address>) it seems to work.

Any ideas on what is wrong?

At UMass, we had a public mailbox on a Cyber running NOS/VE (ancient
system) which was privately owned and located in a single account.
This machine is going down soon, so the public mailbox was moved to an
Ultrix machine.  The way she sets it up is by putting world-readable
permissions on the elm folder file and write only for herself:  chmod
u+x and a+r on the mail folder.  Then, we can read it by using the -f
flag for elm.  We set up an alias in our .cshrc file that looks
something like this:

     alias cl "elm -f ~account/Mail/.CL"

(I won't divulge what CL stands for...it's not important :) )  Anyway,
this folder can be edited by it's owner, and everyone else can read
it.  Hope this helps.

"[clear]" to invoke crypt() on a message portion? This would be a
big plus.

I know that Ultrix (V4.2) nroff performs exactly as you describe, and
it's less than fun trying to read the resulting text.  Perhaps the elm
distribution could include a modified form of tmac.an with the above
change, to be used when nroffing the documents (troff would probably
use the original).

I am a new user of elm and will immediately give thumbs up to it as a
piece of software.

I do have a few questions.

	1) Is there a FAQ? I searched news.answers and only found the
monthly notes.

	2) How does one create an alias file. (Do I want an alias file) i
want to shortcut my typing to regular recipients of my mail

	3) Is there a way for elm to automatically file mail into folders
by reading the subject line. I post a compiled list to a newsgroup and
people make contributions and make requests by sending commands such as
'query' and 'info' in the subject line and the details in the body. As it
is now, I have to manually save them with 's' then '={folder}'.

	4) Is there a Mac equivelant to elm or is there a way to access my mail
from my home mac (on the internet) without needing to telnet to my acct?


Well, that's alot for one post. respond either here or to me directly.

Th'nx.

Yeah, toggle the d_tzname variable in config.sh for now.  Eventually

Well, as a followup... I coud reproduce that under PL17 !
Scenario:
1) elm
2) 'm' / Addresse / Subject / editor-session ...
3) When the menue with default 's' comes up I hit 'c'
4) then I enter an file/folder-name (I tried '/tmp/blerg' AND '=blerg')
5) I use '! less <folder>' OR leave elm then look into folder
   and the typed message is NOWHERE TO BE SEEN ... 

Slightly more irritated, Stucki

This SHOULD send a copy of the file update.txt to the sender of 
any mail with subject UPDATE, right?  It doesn't work!  Anyone know why?

My objectives are:

to automatically mail to any sender of mail with subject UPDATE the file 
update.txt.
to delete that mail with subject UPDATE before it gets into my mailbox

also,
to automatically send to a whole group of people (use an alias?)
any message with the subject MAILING-LIST

Thanks in advance.  I know this problem has been posed before, but I 
never saw an answer.  Replies via direct email are preferable as I 
don't get a chance to check usenet too often.

Nope.  It didn't do that before.  Hmmm... I liked it the old way.  I've

I should have known better to expect a certain netter to keep track of a
thread when he responds to it anywhere beyond the original article, espe-
cially after what he pulled in news.software.readers last week, but I naively
gave the guy a second chance.  Cheat me once, shame on you; cheat me twice,
shame on me.

When I asked in <Bz28FM.Mq6@ddsw1.mcs.com>:

| >HOW can I keep Elm from removing $tmpdir/snd.$$ upon hangups?  I think Elm
| >should remove that file only when the user exits the editor (and the header
| >editing screen) and issues a s)end or f)orget command.

... syd@dsi.com (Syd Weinstein) replied in <1g8u2kINNsvs@dsinc.dsi.com>:

| The code that does this is in src/util.c, in the leave function.
| You need to delete or comment out the lines that 'delete' the edit buffer.

I replied from my HoloNet account (in an article that hasn't reached ddsw1
yet) that an administrator-level suggestion was impractical and would require
all other Elm users on ddsw1 to delete their $tmpdir/snd.$$ files by hand.

That certain netter responded that no, Syd had said that those files would
stick around only if Elm is terminated by a sighup during editing.  Dupe that
I am, I replied politely that gosh, I must have misunderstood Syd, and if
that's true, my second objection would vanish, though there still would be
the problem of importuning ddsw1's owner (and I'd rather he spend what time
he can spare for my problems on curing the hangups) to edit and rebuild Elm.

But I checked back, and surely enough, Syd had added this:

| Note: this code is called in a lot of places, this will do all of them
| not just the sighup.

So my second objection stands: commenting out the code for deleting
$tmpdir/snd.$$ would require all users to rm those files by hand -- not just
me when I luck into finishing a session -- and it's just not reasonable to
force it on everyone.

My third objection is that HoloNet doesn't allow canceling articles.

No, actually if it changed, its a bug, we didn't intend to change it,
it changed as a side effect of something else we fixed.

Hi all!

I have just read the info sent about elm, but
still can't find what I am looking for.
I am working in a machine and I have another
account in another machine, I need to autoforward
my mail from the machine where I am using elm
to the other one, BUT I want to keep the messages
in the 'elm' machine, got it? :-)
The thing is I don't want to set the .forward file
since this method doesn't keep the mail in the
original site but rather send it and delete it.
Is there a way to do this with elm?

Thanks for any hints.

I had some troble with elm too... here are some hints:

1. All SCO-Unix machines, I saw had wrong file-permissions for the 
   directory-structure beyond /usr/spool/mmdf. See 'man queue' for
   the right ones.

2. The 'From:'-Header were not set correctly. Inserting '#undef MMDF'
   in the top of src/mailmsg2.c fixed this problem.

Greetings...

P.S: Using ELM 2.3 on SCO 3.2.2 without ODT.
