Hi Michael,
On Sunday, September 10, 2000, 10:07 AM, you hammered out in part
about "[newbie] What's everybody's favorite email package?":
m> Does one have to disable Kmail in order to try exmh?
You bring up a very good point, which I forgot about.
I had the same problem initially, and the answer lies with your
/home/user/Mail directory. Exmh looks to create the /Mail directory
in your personal user directory. (notice the capital M). Since Kmail
has already named it, and uses it, I had to rename the existing Mail
directory to something else, i.e. Mail1.
This will let Exmh make its Mail directory, and if you don't like it,
you can delete it later, and rename Mail1 back to Mail for your Kmail.
With this minor change, you will be off and running.
m> Although I installed the necessary packages, the initial exmh
m> dialogue will only come up if I'm accessing it as superuser, not as
m> ordinary user.
