I can't figure out why newmail doesn't work. I'm on a Sun4, I
use c shell (in which I have set "notify"), newmail runs happily
after I start it (its there when I look at jobs that are running)
but completely ignores the arrival of any new mail! I ran newmail
with the debug on and it's only message was that it was starting
and checking my mail spool file, after that not a peep out of it.
Does anyone have an idea (based on this admittedly meager info)
what might be wrong, I can't think of what I should even start to
look at or check into.
