I should clarify the problem I referred to: "mail thinks your home directory is root instead of $HOME". What I meant was if you do a !ls at the & mail prompt it gives the root directory. & s file still saves to the home directory. What seems to be happening is that !ls is run under a separate c-shell which thinks that its home, or at least its initial directory, is root. I have found that any csh command takes / as the default directory rather than the current directory. This may be related to our general problems with the c-shell scripts.
