- Hi there,
-
- I just compiled Elm 2.4 (PL20) in our lab machine, a DECstation 5000/25
- running ULTRIX 4.2 rev. 48 and although I did not get the error messages
- reported in the last weeks, I got a weird bug. Every time I try to quit
- using q)uit, and select to save my incoming mail I get something like:
-
- Permission to write to /usr/users/palpez/Mail/inbox denied!
- Folder untouched.
-
- And then it quits without saving my incoming messages, which are kept in
- /usr/spool/mail/palopez till the next time I run Elm.
-
- I there is enough interest, I would summarize the answers and post the to
- the net.
