- First, I just started using Linux and I'm impressed!
-
- These have probably been answered elsewhere but I'll ask anyway ... I've
- noticed a number of users asking about problems in uucp, mail, and minicom. I'm
- using SLS 98p5 and am experiencing problems with each also.
-
- 1) Just typing mail causes a core and through elm or emacs rmail mail seems to
- be sent but never arrives (I'm just trying it locally).
-
- 2) Minicom -s gives a seg violation so I can't ever set it up. I brought a
- version down from tsx-11 with a patch hoping that had a fix in it but it didn't.
-
- 3) I've had some problems setting up uucp. While browsing the net I've noticed
- several people implying uucp does not work currently. Is this correct?
-
- For all of the above, if they are not working now. Is there a previous version
- I can count on?
-
- Thanks in advance for any help.
