Invocation of  acme mail fails:

/acme/mail/Mail
Mail: can't open window ctl file: '/mnt/wsys/new' file does not exist

mail, or mail -f mailfile works.

Probably I failed to do some setup, or something elementary.

Thanks in advance.

-Tom

you need to run it inside Acme, if you aren't already.
try starting Acme with

	acme /acme/*/guide
then in the frame labelled /acme/mail/guide, click on the word Mail with button 2

now this may sound (or is) stupid but it sounds like you need to be
running acme, which requires rio, and then you run it from acme.
