I've reported and asked on several occasions about two irritating problems with my vm configuration: 1) XEmacs needed to be (re)started each time *after* connecting to my dialup host, or else vm would fail to recognize the connection. And, 2) my mail would never delivered the mail immediately, but instead required me to always' su root -c "sendmail -q"'. I got lots of good advice, thank you, but the problem was in fact a simple one, and I thought I'd post the reason in case anyone else runs into this: The problem was that vm-spool-files was pointing to my INBOX (instead of my system spool file as it should be). Man-o-man is my face red... jb
