\_ I've just set up the VM mail reader running under XEmacs, and now I'm \_ trying to use it to send mail. I set up my SMTP server info under the \_ mail config area in XEmacs, but no matter what I try, XEmacs always uses \_ sendmail. How do I instruct XEmacs to send mail via SMTP? You mean like SMTP straight to the machine in question? This page goes over FSF emacs under NT, and would seem to discuss what you're interested in. YMMV. http://www.cs.washington.edu/homes/voelker/ntemacs.html#mail-outgoing Given the ports of tcsh & emacs to NT, people have accused the greater lesser-OS on my former desktops of being linux. :-) You know what really gets my goat about the dumb command prompt under windows? cd d: cd /foo/bar and not cd d:/foo/bar Also, try: cd //server/share/dir/ ...last I checked, that didn't work worth squat in command. tcsh was quite happy with it. uhoh...the men in the nice white coats are coming to take me away ha ha ho ho he he David
