 The originator was using elm-2.4ME+68, which was on the 4.0 CD set. From a
 later elm-2.4ME ChangeLog, I found:
 
         - "Also, under Solaris 2.6/7, HP-UX 10.20 and
            FreeBSD 3.1, if the mailbox does not exist
            (i.e. /var/mail/user), elm will dump core.
            If the file exists but is zero length, there
            is no problem. This problem does not occur on linux
            (Redhat 6.0 in my tests)."
          Reported by: Zube <Zube@CS.ColoState.EDU>
         - Also happened on IRIX
 
 
 Orginator was advised to upgrade to a newer ELM.
