Reply-To: eddy@opera.com
When I invoke rmail for the first time in a session, I get an error from movemail:
<quote src="*Messages*">
Loading rmail...done
Counting messages...done
movemail: /usr/lib/emacs/22.1/i486-linux-gnu/movemail: invalid option -- -

</quote> Everything works fine despite that, but clearly something's
amiss. C-h a movemail RET got me no responses and I can't see
anything in my rmail config that obviously sets something to - or --
(I can't tell from the message which is the problem), so I'm
entertaining the delusion that the problem isn't something I
configured for an old version of emacs, that's wrong for the new
version.
