Mail Tool Problem

Hi Netters,

The knowledge of this newsgroup has come through again....

My original post was:

Of the responses I received, the one from Ed Arnold stated I had

too many folders in my mail directory to get an open window. He

suggested I try to start the mailtool from an open window (&mailtool),

click on the Mail File "arrow", and check for error messages. This

procedure produced the error

        XView warning: Menu too large for screen (Command Menu package)

which confirmed the problem. I moved some of my many mail folders to

appropriate subdirectories and now all works well.

My thanks to Ed and to the others who responded to my post. Even though

this was a simple (yet very annoying) problem, it again emphasizes the

knowlege and willingness of this group. Super!

Try starting mailtool from an open console window, then click on the

arrow and see if you don't get an error message (we did).
