Thanks to the many people who took the time to tell me how to use .mailrc, and even to those of you who politely suggested that I should have looked at "man mail" first. Sorry to ask such a dumb question: somehow, I was convinced that the answer would be complicated and would have nothing to do with mail itself, so it didn't occur to me to start with man. -- Richard Hoffman / 5751 Valkeith / Houston, TX 77096 / (713) 729-5716 +- / 12166 Metric Blvd., #122 / Austin, TX 78757 / (512) 823-1822 "Anybody who is not a misanthrope by age 40 has never truly loved mankind."
