	I am using Sun OS 4.1 and the mail system is mmdf.  In my .login I
issue the command 'biff y' yet when mail is sent to me I am not informed.
Could someone please shed some light as to why this is.  Could you please 
E-mail me any responses.  If anyone else is having this problem let me know
and I will compile any answers I get and post to this group.  

	Thanks in advance,
	Andrew Vellnagel.
