System name:		unca-donald
Type and version:	KN02ca 7.7F
Display type:		PMAG-DV 

Workstation software:
Layered Athena (DECMIPS) Version 7.7F Mon Aug 22 14:42:15 EDT 1994
 
SRVD software:

I haven't tried this on a non-layered-athena 7.7 decstation.

At the "what now?" prompt after doing comp, you're supposed to be
able to type "whom" to see who the message will go to and to check
deliverability. 

On this machine, though the following happens:

What now? whom
unable to exec /usr/athena/bin/whom: No such file or directory
 
What now? ?
Options are:
  display [<switches>]
  edit [<editor> <switches>]
  list [<switches>]
  push [<switches>]
  quit [-delete]
  refile [<switches>] +folder
  send [<switches>]
  whom [<switches>]
 
What now? whom
unable to exec /usr/athena/bin/whom: No such file or directory
