Hi. I've got an RT running AIX 2.2.1 and Sendmail. If you're reading mail and you quit with q command, read messages get appended to the *beginning* of your mbox folder, rather than at the end. I have users complaining about this, but I'm not sure how to fix it. Has anyone else experienced/ fixed this? db ________________________________Daniel Barron__________________________________ ______________________________________ ________________________________________ "The villa's and the chapel's where | E-mail: barron@eniac.seas.upenn.edu I learned with little labor | barron@wharton.upenn.edu The way to love my fellow man | barron@dacth01.bitnet And hate my next-door neighbor." | barron@av2.wharton.upenn.edu ____________-- G.

If you put the command "set append" in your .mailrc file, new mail will be added to the end of the mailbox (I prefer it that way too). --- John Iacoletti IBM Advanced Workstation Division Austin, Texas internet: ...cs.utexas.edu!ibmaus!auschs!johniac.austin.ibm.com!john awdnet: john@johniac.austin.ibm.com vnet: JOHNIAC at AUSVM6
