[comp.mail.elm] ELM broken on Sun-4 running SunOS4.0

rscott@eta.unix.ETA.COM (Rich Scott) (11/22/88)

	Help! We're a group of heavy ELM users, and we just converted
one of our fileservers (formerly a Sun 3/280, 3.5 system) to the
Sun-4 processor running SunOS4.0. However, ELM is broken; some specific
things that don't work right:

	- greater than about 20-some messages (I don't know exactly) in
	  your mailbox are ignored by ELM. It seems as if it only goes
	  about partway through your mail file.

	- *all* messages are always marked as new.

	- keystrokes are ignored until you hit the return key.

	If anyone has patches (or a clean distribution that I can ftp from
the internet) to make it work correctly, we'd be very, very grateful.
