Yup. I can never get emacs zephyr to work right, and Laura Baldwin
suggested this. I've been using it for several months now.

Dude! Yup, that works fine.

sending a zephyr to myself results in the following:
-> [mit,message,personal] / Mon Feb 3 11:17:46 2003 /
biohazard-cafe.mit.edu
marleigh: "Do you know what today is?"
^@^@ "No, what?"
^@^@ "Today is tomorrow. It happened."
Test.
[mit,message,personal] / Mon Feb 3 11:17:46 2003 /
biohazard-cafe.mit.edu Ov
marleigh: "Do you know what today is?"
^@^@ "No, what?"
^@^@ "Today is tomorrow. It happened."
Test.
I get two copies. If I send a zephyr to someone else, I get:
[mit,message,personal] / Mon Feb 3 11:21:23 2003 /
biohazard-cafe.mit.edu
marleigh: Men are stupid, men are vain...
^@^@ Love's disgusting, love's insane...
Test.
If I respond to the last one, it'll send a zephyr to the person it's
intended for. So if I send z kretch "Test", I'll see the above show up
on my screen. If I then reply to it, it'll send a zephyr to you.
Which I need to remember, since the zephyr doesn't tell me that until I
see the "z kretch" show up.
As a side note, it's also inserting those weird ^@^@ in multiple line
zsigs, which it's never done before.
That helpful?
