To run the mail program when no new mail is available: % mail -f Existing mails in your ~/mbox will be listed with numbers; to delete, use "d 1 2 5" or "d 1-10", just as you like. Further instructions can be seen in "man mail". :-) -- Polytropon >From Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Disposing of Mail
After examining a message you can delete (d) the message or reply (r) to
it. Deletion causes the mail program to forget about the message. This
is not irreversible; the message can be undeleted (u) by giving its num-
ber, or the mail session can be aborted by giving the exit (x) command.
Deleted messages will, however, usually disappear never to be seen again.
