I am in the process of converting my 2-year old 2.3U Sys V/AT system
over to a 386 running V/386 3.0e. So far everything has gone extrememly
smooth. I have Elm and News all up and running. All I need to get running
yet is Smail 2.5 and I can swap out my 286 system. I have taken the
exact source that I had running on the 286 and simply recompiled it on
the 386. It compiles cleanly. I install it as per the installation
instructions. The problem is that when I try to send mail with either
mailx or Elm, it kicks out the error "mail -s invalid option" or something
close to this. I didnt write down the exact wording. I restore the
original /bin/rmail and /bin/mail and all works again. The 286 sure didnt
complain about a " -s" option yet I can't find this in the config files.
Is there anyone running Smail 2.5 on V/386 that can shed some light on what
I need to do ? This is my last step to getting everything running and
I'm very anxious. Any and all help is appreciated.
John
