Subject: elm2.4PL11 doesn't compile
Organization: Hong Kong University of Science and Technology
Date: Thu, 19 Nov 1992 01:44:27 GMT

From elm2.4PL8 which I got from ftp.uu.net, I patched up to 11 which was
officially released. Trying to make, and the following error message appeared:

cc  -o ../bin/filter actions.o   buffer.o        filter.o        lock.o         parse.o          rules.o                 summarize.o     utils.o                ../lib/libutil.a -lnls

   _regcomp 
*** Error code 2
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `../bin/filter'
Current working directory /csfs1/share/src/mail/elm/filter
*** Error code 1

A quick check of Makefile.SH showed that the file regexp.c was neither compiled
nor linked. This file contains code for the above functions. A new patch
may be required to fix this.

Thanks

I noticed after applying the "official" ELM patches 9-11 that UTIMBUF on Sun
4.1.x and TZNAME on SGI 4.0.x needed to be manually defined. Previous builds
of ELM did not exhibit this problem.

Not fixed. If su to root and run elm, everything is fine. If I setuid
to root on elm and run it from my log on I still get:

Hi!

After installing elm 2.4.11 under HP-UX 8.0/8.07 we noticed, that some
mails appear to have an attribute 'M'. When trying to read this mails,
one get:

	sh: metamail not found

Which item (script, etc.) we're missing ?

Please e-mail your ideas!

In elm 2.4.8 and below, pressing 'h' to 'view message with headers' on a
MIME message calls up Metamail the same as if you'd just hit return for
the normal view message command. Wouldn't it be more useful to have elm
disregard the MIME status and use its normal 'view message with
headers'? I haven't had time yet to examine the code to see how easy
this would be.

Looks like when I rebuild elm for Concurrent RTU and went to v2.4pl8 from
patchlevel 5 I picked up the same problem.  We're using MMDF here if anyone
wants to track MTA's.

Hi everyone,

I am wondering if it is possible to use wordprossing as a front end

My company likes elm but does not like the cryticness of vi(I personally
swear by vi.).  Can a word processing package be used as a front
end to elm?  Specifically, Word Perfect.

If so, how can it be done?

Thanks in advance  :)

Actually, my complaint about the hardcoded pathnames in the elmrc
file stems right from 2.4.11, so it's not the version number.  elm
may be perfectly happy to use $HOME, but it's not creating the files
that way.  I DEFINITELY don't want to have to edit all the elmrc files
by hand (or spend almost as much time writing a script to do it for me).
I want a way to convince elm to create the file with ~ or $HOME right
off the bat.

Again, feel free to mail me, but remember the From: line is STILL
wrong.  You must mail to the address below, not hit 'r'.  With any
luck, though, we will have this fixed in a week or so (moving to a
new news server; the gods willing).  Thanks!

The only thing I am aware of that happens only with emacs and not
vi, is when a message is not terminated with a newline, some sendmails
get very upset.  vi cannot do that but emacs can.

Some one has submitted a patch to elm to prevent this, but it is on
hold pending a checkout of the ramifications of applying it to the
other features of things. (ramifications both in and out of Elm)

I checked config.sh found d_utimbuf='undef'... I changed that to define

Hmmm. No big deal, seems fine, I just thought someone might want to know.

Version 2.4 does support MIME to some degree. You need metamail from
Nathaniel Borenstein as additional software. There are instructions
in the 2.4 distribution, how to obtain metamail.

The MIME support isn't yet fully done. AT least you could properly
receive MIME messages (elm calls out to metamail), and you could
send some types of MIME messages. The mechanism for sending MIME
messages isn't yet very elaborated, just a crude include mechanism.

Sincerely,
Klaus

Subject: MIME Content-Type: problem (elm2.4pl8)

Date: Wed, 18 Nov 1992 15:39:35 GMT

I just received a MIME message from the IETF mailing list with a valid Content-Type:

	Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

elm doesn't like the quotes. It decides that the character set "us-ascii" is
unknown, and passes the message to metamail.

According to the MIME BNF, quoted strings are allowed in the value portion
of a parameter.

The fix is in the routine notplain() in mime.c; The ELM group probably has a
fancy way to handle quoted strings, but I don't know what it is, so I simply
used the following patch:

*** /tmp/,RCSt1a15518	Wed Nov 18 10:38:36 1992

Can anyone using Elm 2.4 PL8 with MMDF say that they *DO NOT* have
problems reading in a mail spool with greater than 9 messages and
greater than 10k total???

Sounds like your xterm terminfo/termcap is incorrect and not doing the proper
switch into cursor addressing modes...
1. do you have usetite = off, perhaps your xterm needs it on
2. same for the -t command line argument.

I refer everyone to the TI/TE stuff in README and the past month
on this list.

However, PL10 is not yet released.  That patches state ALPHA on them
(and they have no effect on this problem at all)
before everyone hits the archive server to retrieve them, please note:
They are going to change between ALPHA test and final release.  So,
if you fetch them, be prepared to back them out.  I recommend against
applying alpha patches.  (They are there so members of the beta group
can test them for you, let them do the hard work :-) )

Does anybody have the settings for configuring Elm to run on A/UX?  I get
tons of erros when I compile and would rather have advice before I go digging
around.

thanks,
greg
