This seemed like a great idea.

Unfortunately, rmail-movemail-program is nil when running both 20.7
and 21.3.  There's no program running called "movemail", just
sendmail, and I haven't found movemail in any of the usual places.

This is AIX 5.1 (IBM's UNIX).

So what changed in RMAIL between 20.7 and 21.3?

Does anyone have RMAIL running on 21.3 and Unix?  What did you have to
change from 20.7?
