[comp.mail.elm] Sources and fixes

barn@paxton.ced.berkeley.edu (Gary Barnette) (01/18/89)

I also am interested in where sources are available and 
the info about Andy Linton's fixes. If someone that responds to
the these previously posted requests could do so here, then all
the world(?) could benifit.

I posted a couple of additions to elm 2.1 which should not really be
interpreted as patches.  They didn't fix something that was broken but
added some functionality and changed soemthing I didn't like.  The
things I sent were a set of diffs which added the abililty to delete
aliases from within 'elm' i.e.  without having to touch the
.elm/aliases.text file directly and a change to allow folder names to
have embedded '.' characters.  The latter means that mail from me will
default into a folder called 'Andy.Linton' and not 'Andy'.  This is
important to us as many of our users have names like 'A.B.Smith' and a
folder name of 'A' is not too helpful.

If anyone still wants these diffs, please contact me.
