- Hi,
-
- This is correct behaviour; the savemail variable is meant to indicate
- where you want copies of your OUTBOUND mail saved.
- Mine is set to $HOME/Mail/Correspondence/Outgoing.Mail, where Outgoing.Mail
- is a filename.
- If a want to look up what I sent to someone weeks ago, I just do
- cd $HOME/Mail/Correspondence; elm -f Outgoing.Mail
-
- Bye,
- Gert.
