Forwarding mail from RMAIL

2007-03-21 Thread jpff
I was dealing with e-mail -- I use RMAIL. I tried to forward a message with full headers, as I have been doing for years. t to get headers f to forward I get a message that RMAIL is readonly. It does create a *mail* buffer with the header info, but it is not displayed. Earlier I tried m to send

In contrast, %! is far too generic to be useful. It may be a heuristic for a PostScript interpreter to decide whether it is getting fed PostScript on stdin. But it does not sound like a useful heuristic for a text editor to decide whether a named file contains PostScript code or anything

Daniel, do you remember why you put an entry (%![^V] . ps-mode) in magic-mode-alist? Did it just seem like a good idea or was there some particular (set of) circumstances you had bumped into that called for it? Stefan Juanma == Juanma Barranquero [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: On

1. Let your ~/.emacs file contain only this line: (recentf-mode 1) 2. Start Emacs without any command line arguments. The File menu contains a submenu Open Recent, and this contains no files (the value of recentf-list is nil). 3. Visit several files. These will now be listed in the Open Recent
