Hello :

I have the following problem with elm :

When I read 'news' I save all the unread articles in a file and entering
elm, I change the folder to that saved file.  I don't know why it works
90% of the times and sometimes it tells me 'format unknown' or 
"Folder is corrupt!!  I can't read it!!"

It has been the case that sometimes, blank lines at the top of the folder
cause this, but not this time.

Thanks for comment.
