Problem #1
athena% emacs -font 6x10 -r -i -b 2 -w =80x72-005+035&
results in:
MR Buffer Size Mode File
-- ------ ---- ---- ----
. -r 0 Text /site/dryfoo/-r
*scratch* 0 Text
2 0 Text /site/dryfoo/2
-b 0 Text /site/dryfoo/-b
*Buffer List* 0 Buffer Menu
In other words, standard Emacs command line options are being taken as
file names.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Problem #2
When I tried to run mail in my usual way: M-x mh-rmail, I get this error
message:
inc: Post office refused connection: Time is out of bounds (krb_rd_req)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Problem #3
At my first login after taking 6.3B, mwm came up as the window manager.
I have been told since then that the default ought to be uwm unless I
set it up otherwise. I don't think I have. I was advised to report this.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Problem #4
This happened earlier today. This is the note I sent to olc. I thought
you ought to know about it, too:
---------------
I logged in (new staff release and all that) on my privatized
workstation. My NFS locker didn't attach. [problem #4A]
My mail is supposed to be inc'd into /mit/dryfoo/Mail/inbox Well, it got
inc'd. Then I realized that /mit/dryfoo wasn't attached, so I attached
it. My new mail seems gone with the wind. Is there any way to recover
it out of the P.O. box (This all happened withing the last half hour or
so.) [problem #4b]

If you have any ideas, please let me know. Thank you,
