Greetings,

I wonder if any of you souls could give me some pointers with the following
elm problem...

I recently got elm2.3 patch 11 and installed it in my directory and was using
it for about a week. Today when I tried to use elm I got the following mesg..

Reading in /var/spool/mail/perera, message: 0
folder is corrupt!! I cant read it!!

I recompiled everything again and started elm up it prompted me for the
creation of a new .elm directory, and the it prompted me for the creation of 
the Mail directory and followed it with the  above mesg again.....

I have elm installed on a Sun sparc and it runs fine
[ Sun4, SunOS 4.1.1 ], the one
having trouble with runs on a Sun3, SunOS 4.1.1...........

Please be kind enough to email me any suggestions...

thanks in advance,
