Message-ID: <1991Apr1.003443.6191@rice.edu> Date: 1 Apr 91 00:34:43 GMT Sender: news@rice.edu (News) Organization: Rice University Lines: 9 While mail notification seems to work fine under ksh, we have been unable to get it to work under csh, which many of our users use as their login shell. Putting the environmental variable MAIL to, e.g., "5 /usr/spool/mail/username" as described in the "man pages" for csh doesn't seem to accomplish much. Is this a FAQ?
