Hello, folks... I read my mail using RMAIL and every time I re-save the mail file, Emacs creates a backup which I have to delete. Is there a simple way to tell it not to do this? There has never been an occasion where I needed to use my backup RMAIL file. I'd like to keep the setting local, as I DO use backups on my normal files. Thanks, Paul Riddle riddle@umbc3.umbc.edu
