This is the README file for "My Mailer" version 1.5

"My Mailer" is the second incarnation of a UNIX text-based mailer
designed to be an intermediate step between mail and pine, with a few
twists of my own.  See the file "Features" to find out how this mailer
is different.

If your mail spool directory is not '/usr/spool/mail/$USER' then you may
want to edit the Makefile and follow the directions at the top to change
the default mail spool directory..

Installation should just be a matter of typing 'make' and placing the
resulting binary 'mmr' wherever you like.

Navigating around mmr should be fairly intuitive, and at any time in the
message listing or viewing, you can press 'h' for help on keystroke commands.

You can set up mail aliases, tune mail parameters, and set many options
in the startup file ~/.mmrc  An example startup file is included as "DOT-mmrc"

The things I plan to do are listing in the "TODO" file.

WARNING:  Though I have tested this software as thoroughly as possible,
I cannot guarantee that this is bug-free and that your mailfile will not
be corrupted.  Any bugs that I know of will be listed in the "BUGS" file,
and I will not release a version that I know has any data corruption
problems, but keep in mind that I haven't seen all mail situations,
so be careful.  A legal no-warranty is in the file "Copying".

If you want to know about new versions of this software, just send me 
(slouken@devolution.com) e-mail and let me know, and I'll be happy to
notify you.

All that said, I hope this is useful for you. :)

Enjoy!
