- I'm having some strange problems with folders...
- (Elm 2.3PL11 on an AT&T 3B2/310 running Unix SystemV rel 3.2.2)
-
- I'm able to save things off to folders, but when I try to get back into
- any of them, ELM tells me: "Can't open folder 'whatever' for reading!"
- The folders do exist; elm is able to list them in my folder directory.
-
- I'm *not* sure this isn't a permissions problem, but none of the ones
- I've tried have worked. Yes, elm is setgid "mail":
-
- -rwxr-sr-x 1 bin mail 246394 Oct 25 02:34 elm
-
-
- Also, can "receivedmail" and "sentmail" in elmrc be directories?
- I'm already saving copies of mail I've sent with mailx in ~/Mail/Sent
- and would like to continue to use that.
-
- Thanks,
- Andy
