- I built ELM 2.3, and as suggested earlier, set my $MAIL variable
- to ~/mailbox. I then ran elm, which says:
-
- Notice:
- ELM requires the use of a folders directory to store your mail folders in.
- Shall I create the directory /usr/staff/wsadkin/Mail for you (y/n)?
-
- Our home directories DO NOT live in /usr/staff! (and I don't see the
- option in configure to change this...) I want it to be ~/Mail...
-
- Again, What do I do?
