[comp.mail.elm] ELM Wont save to my "sentmail=" file!!

jpp@tygra.UUCP (John Palmer) (04/07/91)

I'm running ELM 2.2 under SCO Xenix 2.3.2 and I've got the following
in my .elm/elmrc file:

sentmail = /cat/elmout

Problem is that elm never saves any outbound mail at all, regardless 
of what I set sentmail to. Is this a known bug? /cat/outmail is owned
by me and /cat is my home directory. Also, what is the latest version
of ELM?? Is 2.2 the latest?

Thanks

 No; assuming 2.2 had the option, set copy equal to ON (e.g. 'copy = ON').
