Hi. Just a post to see if anyone can shed some light on how to check and delete mail on an HPUX 11.11 box.

Regards,
Chad

Hi Chad:

Use 'mail' or (I like) 'elm'.

Re: HPUX 11.11 mail

Where are you trying to check the mail? Is it mail local to the HP-UX box?

If so, have a look the mail and/or mailx commands. Have a look at the man pages for them if you are unsure of how they function.

Hello,

Echoing your email address to a .forward file and placing this file in the user's home directory will cause his/her mail to be forwarded to you (provided your mail relay is set up).

Shalom,

Big topic. I like elm for text based mail.
