When I compose a letter using mh-e, and then send it (C-c C-c), I get the following message: Type 'y' when tape is mounted: /users/jat/.m/drafts/3 The path at the end is just the path to the current draft file. /users/jat/.m/drafts/3 ^^^^^^^^^ ^^ ^^^^^^ ^ my home directory | | | directory where my mail folders reside | | my draft folder | current draft file number There's actually no problems with the mailer -- everyone receive my mail. Anyway, anyone have any idea why mh-e would ask me to mount a tape after I try to send mail? It does this consistently. Joe Talmadge Trust me. I know what I'm doing. hplabs!hpsemc!jat jat%hpsemc@hplabs.HP.COM
