  NAME

    frm - Lists sender and subject of all messages in mailbox or file

  SYNOPSIS

    frm [-nv] [folder|mailbox]

  FLAGS

    -n   Numbers the headers of each message.

    -v   Displays the total number of messages in the folder.

  DESCRIPTION

    The frm command with no flags displays one line per message in the current
    user's mailbox.  This line has the following format:

    from subject

    Folders can be specified with the notation used with the Elm mailer.  The
    notation to specify a folder is =foldername.  If a folder is specified,
    the command reads that folder rather than the default mailbox.  If the
    argument is a username, the command reads the specified user's mailbox.
    (The user is able to list another's user's mailbox only if the permissions
    are set to allow this.)

  EXAMPLES

    1.  To list the sender and subject of each of the messages contained in
        the folder bill, enter this command:

        frm =bill


    2.  To list and number the messages in the mailbox of user joe, enter this
        command:

        frm -n joe

        This command will work only if the mailbox of joe has its permissions
        set to allow other users to list the contents of the mailbox.

  DIAGNOSTICS

    If the user specifies a folder which does not exist, the message
    ``Couldn't open folder foldername'' is displayed.
