There are 2 problems with elm 2.2 that I have found annoying, and I hope someone can give me a workaround. 1. I would like to have a copy of all outbound mail in a single file (like mailx), but inbound mail saved according to login name (i.e., savename turned on). It looks like elm 2.2 won't allow this combination. 2. After composing a message and requesting the "edit headers" option, the only way to select a header line to edit is by typing the first letter of the header line. In a typical header, I might have both a "Reply-to:" and a "Return-Receipt-To:" line. How do I select the second one for editing? -- == Mark Warren Bull HN Information Systems Inc. == == (508) 671-3171 (FAX 671-3020) 300 Concord Road MS820A == == mwarren@granite.cr.bull.com Billerica, MA 01821 ==

The header editing screen only handles the headers it shows, and since it doesn't show both of those, its not a problem. (Return-Receipt-To: is under User defined header (U)) Under discussion for the past two years has been how to handle this screen better. (This discussion is still valid, even if an an expert mode is created for editing the headers with the message) Until some consensus and worthwhile decision is made, it probably won't change. -- ===================================================================== Sydney S.
