Lines: 17 I know 2.0 is due out soon but I was wondering if anyone has a fix for a problem I'm having on my home machine. I have a PC7300 at home and decided to install elm as a suid mailer well everything is fine execept that if I leave only some mail in the system mailbox it gets unwritable by the group ( probably because of my umask ) and the group gets change to my group NOT mail. Well after that any new mail gets bounced. First question is, does this happen in 2.0? My second question is anybody got a fix that I can use while waiting for 2.0? -- __ _ __ / ) // / ) / / / __. __ __ __ , // /--< __. /_ _ __ Darryl Baker /__/_(_/|_/ (_/ (_/ (_/_
