On a Debian-based distro, I'm running:
GNU Emacs 27.1 (build 1, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.24.24, cairo version 1.16.0) of 2021-03-27, modified by Debian
Goy Gnu `mailutils' installed and working from a terminal.
I can't tell if emacs is using the gnu `movemail' utility or ots own built-in one.
However, I do know that it simply refuses to read ant file/directory that I tell it to in my Rmail section of .emacs. I've pointed it to:
~/mail/inbox
~/RMAIL
/var/mail/username
NO JOY! I know that there's mail in one of them, because it got there using `movemail' by hand, and then inhaling it into emacs as a regular file.
Can't figure it out! Hope somebody has got some clues for me. TIA
