- Does anyone have a set of patches for Emacs18.58 will fix Rmail under
- AIX3.2. I think the problem has to do with IBM changes to the way
- /usr/spool/mail permissions are done (SYSV vs. BSD)
-
- I have tried setting movemail setgid mail but it doesn't seem to
- fix the problem and I've had little time of late to dig much deeper.
-
- Any information as to why Emacs might be behaving this way would be
- appreciated.
-
- movemail: Permission denied for lock file--see source file etc/movemail.c
-
- Thanks in advance,
-
- Ed

- BTW - Please reply via Email I can't say when I'll be able to read News.
