Hi,

I installed nmh-1.0.4-1 from unstable, and I gather we are supposed to
give feedback when we try something, so here is what I found...

nmh compiled and installed just fine.  "comp" also works just fine.
But, I get this error when trying "inc":

        mcxr2 : 208>inc
        inc: unable to lock and fopen /var/mail/paulr

Here is my /var/mail:

        mcxr2 : 214>ll /var/mail
        total 8
        drwxrwxr-x   3 root   mail      58 Mar 21 16:53 ./
        drwxr-xr-x  18 root   unknown  568 Mar 21 16:23 ../
        -rw-------   1 paulr  mail     674 Mar 21 16:53 paulr

Does anyone know what is causing this error message or how to work
around it?

One other suggestion as wel: Since sendmail isn't working by default on OS
X, it would be good to put some comment in "fink info nmh" about how
to enable sendmail so that MH can work.
Here is one such reference:

and this pair is good too:
