I installed slang, compiled mutt and installed it underneath my home
directory. the dotlock program, mutt and the Muttrc are in place with
prefix=/usr/home/hypnotik ..
earth% ls -l /var/mail/hypnotik
-rw------- 1 hypnotik user 654 Feb 4 15:35 /var/mail/hypnotik
earth% export MAIL=/var/mail/hypnotik
earth% mutt
<loads up fine, but even with TWO mails in my mail file mutt shows no
mails. it just displays the menu bar and the status bar. I exit normally.>
<so I try to run it -f on the cmdline, it enters two newlines and then
exits.>
earth% ~/bin/mutt -f /var/mail/hypnotik
earth%
----- end ------
output of mutt -v:
