I try to use the emacs21 newsreading tool (in X11). Apparently, one should set the NNTPSERVER environment variable, which I can do using the command: env NNTPSERVER=<newsserver> emacs21 & But two problems: Newsreading still does not work within emacs21. And I am unable to set the environment variable NNTPSERVER in other ways so that emacs21 can see it. For example, the following two commands in bash (as in uxterm) won't work: NNTPSERVER=<newsserver> emacs21 & What's wrong, and is there a fix?
