John Gayman (john@wa3wbu.UUCP) writes of an incompatibility between
elm2.1 and smail2.5 on his SVR3 system.  Elm passes a -s option to
/bin/rmail and rmail complains it is illegal.

The easiest workaround is when you Configure elm, just tell it that
you're running v5 rather than v.3.  I think v.3 should only be specified
for SVR3 systems that aren't running smail or sendmail.

The Configuration script should be more explicit here.
