Elm seems to be confused about whose mailbox to look at when refering to
root ids that are not root. For example, our usenet accounts is a root account,but it is not *root* per se. Mailx performs properly and examines the
/usr/mail/usenet mailbox for mail to usenet. Elm, however, looks to
/usr/mail/root for this info. Elm is wrong.
How can we fix this?

I administer several machines and all mail coming from user root on any other machine shows up in my incoming mail as from the name on the Y)our full name line of my options screen. Thus all mail from ANY root user is listed as being from me. >How can we fix this?
