- I just finished to install elm 2.4 PL17 on AIX/370 1.2.1
- and AIX/6000 3.1.5.
-
- It really seems a big jump over the basic mail facilities
- available under UNIX, but I still lack somethink.
-
- I did a fast (I've to admit, maybe to fast) read to
- the documentation about aliases and folders and what
- I've understood is that you may setup to automatically
- save mail in folders with the login name of the sender
- putting <savename = ON> in the elmrc file.
-
- That is quite better of the standard mail (that may
- only save in folders by hand), but what I would like
- would be to have the same feature of VM MAIL Notebook.
-
- I mean in VM you may have your USERID NAMES where you
- can setup equivalents of aliases and say:
- ok this alias, this alias and this should be automatically
- saved on this notebook (where the name of notebook,
- read folder, is completely arbitrary).
-
- In that way you may have a group of user which
- mail (both outcoming and incoming) is saved on
- a particular notebook (folder).
- That let you to group your mail in a very easy way.
-
- Does this feature exists in elm? If not, is there any
- prevision of a feature like this in elm? Do you know
- any (public domain) mail package able to do that
- and coexists peacefully with standard mail?
-
- Thank in advance, Peppe
