running 18.51 emacs ultrix 3.1 after extablishing a second inbox in /usr/spool/mail/ and in RMAIL mode doing i XMAIL RET followed by M-x set-rmail-inbox-list RET inbox_name RET I find that the g RET does not merge new mail. I tried saving the XMAIL file, exiting and returning to RMAIL, putting the inbox in my home dir rather than /usr/spool/mail, all to no avail. C-u g inbox_name RET does bring new mail into the XMAIL buffer but does not remove the inbox. Am I describing the unworthy behavior of 18.51 or did I miss something? We have available 18.54 (I think that is the number) but haven't taken the time to install. Is this the reason for the time I need to take? PS is there a clue to this in the help apropos for inbox ? set-rmail-inbox-list Function: Set the inbox list of the current RMAIL file to FILE-NAME. This may be[sic]
