I created a server named extern, type nnspool, to use a local spool (loaded by incoming email). I now want to change the location of the files in the hierarchy. Moving the tree and the active file were no problem, but when I try and edit the server (command e in the server buffer), I get the response: server cannot be edited. I can get around this easily by deleting the server, then creating a new one with the same parameters, but why can I not edit the server from the server buffer? -- James Kanze home: kanze@gabi-soft.fr +33 (0)3 88 14 49 00 office: kanze@vx.cit.alcatel.fr +33 (0)1 69 63 14 54 GABI Software, Sarl., 8 rue des Francs Bourgeois, F-67000 Strasbourg, France -- Conseils en informatique industrielle --
