When people who haven't used ELM before type "elm", it asks if it should
set up their .elm/ and Mail/ directories for them.  They also get a default
elmrc.  I know that some of the defaults for this standard elmrc come from
Configure, and I'm not worried about those.  The other settings, however,
don't seem to be settable to a default anywhere.  I was wondering if ELM
had anything like a default elmrc anywhere (like a system-wide one that it
could boot up on).  Sort of like "mailx.rc" that mailx uses.

Otherwise I'm going to have to pre-create everyone's .elm/ and elmrc so
they get decent default options... bleech.

Thanks for any help!  :-)

Eric
