The Elm Users Guide

A painless introduction to electronic mail using the Elm mail system

ABSTRACT

While various Unix utilities have been designed to take advantage of the CRT screen (rather than line-oriented systems) electronic mail systems haven't ``caught the wave''. This document presents Elm, a sophisticated full-screen mail system for interactive use. Elm offers all the features of /bin/mail, Berkeley Mail, uumail, NMail and the AT&T Mail family of Unix mailers (namely PMX/TERM) in a unified and intuitive fashion.
