I posted the following for a friend; please e-mail replies to him. ---------------------Posting follows:------------------------------- From: Adam S. Moskowitz <uunet!usinset.inset.com!adamm> X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.2 PL0] Status: R I'm new to using Elm (but not electronic mail or UNIX) and I have a few questions. If anyone out there in net.land can help me I'd sure appreciate it. Here they are: 0) How do I get it to always save outgoing mail in just one file (rather than the default of saving messages by the receipient's name)? (And, why doesn't "savebyname = OFF" seem to work?) 1) Can I change the various prompts? If so, how? 2) How do I get it to delete my default (system) mailbox when it's empty? 3) How to I turn off the deletion-confirmation question? (alwaysdelete only changes the default in this question, it doesn't turn the question off) 4) How do I get elm to NOT use my signature on local mail? (I played with localsig and remotesig but couldn't seem to get it to do "the right thing", specifically: NO signature at all on local mail and my .signature (or whatever) or remote mail) 5) How do I remap keys for my personal use ONLY? (I haven't seen anything that indicates this can be done but it would be nice)(No, I'm not volunteering to hack the sources to do it) Since this is being posted for me by a friend (my newsfeed is dead), please send all answers to me via EMAIL and I promise to summarize (I'll have my friend post the summary as well). Thanx. AdamM [adamm@inset.com OR ...!uunet!usinset!adamm]
