Howdy,

On my main machine (486DX4 with 32 megs ram) I have installed elm as my
mail reader. After setup I created file aliases.text per Elm User Guide
and ran 'newaliases' the result was that I could type 'me' at the
Reply-To: prompt and have my full name and email inserted automatically. 

Now the problem, same install on laptop same proceedure and set up to
duplicating .profile on both machine (using bash). Same aliases.text
file in ~/.elm/, same 'newaliases', --- NO ALIAS!. It reports the same
number of aliases no matter what I put in the aliases.text file (and I
put some very colorful aliases.

I've had both machines up and running at the same time - every thing
looks the same, created two (one on each machine) new aliases.text file
and ran 'newaliases' on both. Result - desktop machine - new aliases are
create and work in elm. Laptop machine - NO new aliases and total
failure. 

Something I've missed???
