- After I mark a message for deletion and quit elm, I receive the following
- message:
-
- Error EINVAL trying to change file /usr/mail/root access time.
-
- Does anyone know why this is happening? This happens regardless if I am
- logged as root or some other non-priviledged user. The error message
- seems to be a permissions problem, but I cannot track it down.
-
- BTW, Elm 2.3 seems to operate fine even with the error message.
- Thanks in advance for you help.
