Message-ID: Date: 21 May 91 20:45:49 GMT Sender: news@utacfd.UUCP Organization: Univ. Texas at Arlington, Arlington, Texas Lines: 17 Hello, I have a question about ELM. When a user tried to use ELM, he got the following message: APOLLO//msd/user/lawrence %elm Can't create lock file! Need write permission in "/usr/spool/mail/". I could not find anything wrong in his file or his spool files. Any help/suggestion is greatly appreciated. We are running SR10.3. Thanks. -- ------------------------------------------------- Seiichi Nomura ($@LnB
