'vi +/mail .login' not on SUN ?? - (nf)

	What is wrong?

I tried on a SUN 3 to invoke the 'vi' (only for fun(:-) with
the command

	vi +/mail .login

which should (I think) bring up 'vi' with my .login and place
me to the first occurrence of the word "mail". Surprise!! It
said something like 'hit bottom without finding matching pattern',
although this word is definitively in my .login. (I invoked 'vi'
with 'vi .login' and did a '/mail', worked perfect.) I fiddled a 
little with " and ', but the result remained the same.

	So, who is wrong: The SUN or I ??
