This sounds like maybe you've run into bug 25043: https://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?25043 slocal doesn't cope with the case where (a) you've compiled nmh with dot-locking and (b) /var/mail isn't writeable by users. Assuming this is the case then there are two possible fixes/workarounds: (1) if you're on Linux, install liblockfile and build nmh to use it (2) don't use slocal to deliver mail to the system mbox file -- PMM _______________________________________________ Nmh-workers mailing list Nmh-workers@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
