I trying to trace a problem with my mail. I recently heard about elm2.2[PL16] and smail2.5. I downloaded them and have been trying to get them set up. btw, thanks to all who have put so much time in making elm such a first class product. PROBLEM: When sending email from inside elm it sends the mail and then a few seconds later it sends me the mail. And here it is. *************************** mail from mailer_daemon **************************** >From om_mailer_daemon Thu Feb 22 10:54:13 1990 To: dt Subject: mail problem Status: RO Trouble sending mail on `om', Thu Feb 22 10:54:12 1990 ============ Transcript follows ============ 0 alias errors No local user named "" 1 delivery errors 1 total errors ============== Message follows ============= >From dt Thu Feb 22 10:54:11 1990 Received: by om.UUCP (smail2.5) id AA13773; 22 Feb 90 10:54:11 EST (Thu) Subject: This is a test from elm To: emory!dt Date: Thu, 22 Feb 90 10:54:10 EST From: David Taylor X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.2 PL16] Message-Id: <9002221054.AA13773@om.UUCP> This is the test from elm.

So with the test of two addresses....emory!dt >>worked<< and dt@emory.math.edu didn't work the later gave me the error message..
