Subject: [9fans] Acme mail, reading another mailbox
Date: Tue, 16 Jan 2001 14:54:14 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20010116135750.9F518199D5@mail.cse.psu.edu> (raw)

I use Acme mail almost all the time to read my mail.
I open it up with 'acme /acme/mail/guide' , then use
button 2 on 'Mail stored'. Note: I put the arrow on
"Mail" and then click. I notice putting it on "stored"
doesn't do anything. Anyway, that is not really my
question.

My question is... How can I use Acme mail to read other
mail boxes I have set up in "/mail/box/wstan"? For
example, when I use button2 on "Save" it puts an opened
email into "stored". How can I read my stored messages?

Another observation, just today a friend emailed me a msg
with some large .jpg attachments. I use "aux/listen tcp"
to get my email which works very well. This time it didn't.
I was online for an hour and nothing came in. I know the
email was there because I did a "finger" and saw 17 messages
were waiting. I ended up getting the email via my FreeBSD
partition and Qmail. Any idea why I couldn't get the messages
on Plan9 with my setup?
