Now that I finally got my UNIX-PC upgraded to the 3.5 system software which
supports flexnames, I have installed elm 2.1.  But when I attempt to compose
outgoing mail, I run into a problem at the To: prompt.  I want to enter

    To: user@foobar

but it insists on interpreting the '@' as a line kill character, even though
I have escaped it with a backslash.  Can anyone help me with this?
