Two bugs that have been found and fixed:
1. If you have both keypad and softkeys turned off, elm will still
try to turn the softkeys on. This was traced to a bug in
src/initialize.c.
2. If you limit your mailbox to any category (say, from X), and then
turn off the limit, the header line is redrawn, but not the
message headers themselves. This was traced to a bug in
src/elm.c.
I have enclosed patches at the end of this message for these two bugs.
Two bugs that I have found, but not been able to track down or fix.
1. If you have more than 10 messages in the mailbox, and have movepage
turned off, goto message 11, hit -, then hit k. Surprise!
Message 11 has now overwritten message 1 on the menu.
2. If you use the builtin pager, and have a message that has exactly
one more line when you get the "hit space to continue" prompt,
then the "Press any key to return to Elm" line will overwrite
the last line of the message (16 lines for 24-line screens
should exhibit this error).

After one of my postings I got a mailer-daemon message that my message had been dropped by ucbvax while it was trying to send to some address I didn't recognize. Not having paid attention to the "Received-by" headers that showed that hplabs had forwarded my article to ucbvax (and hence, that hplabs -- i.e., Dave Taylor -- had gotten my article), I promptly reposted it. I don't know why hplabs was trying to post via ucbvax to someone ucbvax couldn't reach, but this posting will show me whether or not it's been fixed. By the way, our postings to moderated newsgroups go via Internet mail to decwrl, which is one of the hosts that has offered to resolve addresses like "comp-mail-elm" to the appropriate uucp address (loosely speaking).
