On a Linux system where I just upgraded from nmh-1.0.4 to nmh-1.1RC3,
sending takes a long, long time (circa 30 seconds) from the time you
type "send" at the whatnow prompt to the time you get a command prompt.
Yeah, I've noticed this one too.. :)
Support item 103005 (link above) includes a patch to sbr/lock_file.c
which simply skips locking if the file is /dev/null.
OK, that idea I can live with - as long as we document that fact.
can someone tell me under what conditions mh would be trying to set
a lock on /dev/null?
