- The 'mail' command allows you to escape from NOS and start an
- external mailer program. When you exit from the mailer, you will
- be returned to NOS.
-
- The BM mailer program (BM.EXE) and its startup script (BM.RC)
- must be located at the DOS root.
-
- The ELM mailer (ELM.EXE) and its startup script (ELM.RC) may
- reside anywhere. Their location is specified by two DOS
- environment variables:
-
- MAILER defines the location of ELM.EXE.
- HOME defines the location of ELM.RC.
-
-
- >> Examples: SET MAILER=c:\nos\elm.exe (the ELM mailer)
- SET HOME=c:\nos (location of ELM.RC)
-
- (Note that 'SET' is a DOS command, so pathnames require a
- backslash, not a forward slash).
