Subject: sun4 8.4.10: trn
Date: Fri, 18 Aug 2000 13:24:36 -0400
From: Laura Baldwin <boojum@MIT.EDU>

System name:		geskekelud.mit.edu
Type and version:	SPARC/5 8.4.10 (with mkserv)
Display type:		cgsix

Shell:			/bin/athena/tcsh
Window manager:		fvwm2

What were you trying to do?
	Read a mime-encoded posting with trn

What's wrong:
	The error message
	/bin/sh: /mit/mime/bin/metamail: not found
	(though the message itself displays okay with a bunch of mime crud)

What should have happened:
        If the mime locker is required to run trn, it should be
        attached automatically and not expect me to magically know to
        do so.  Or trn should try and call it through the full AFS
        path.  Or something, I'm not sure what canon is for dealing
        with requiring programs from other lockers.
