SYNOPSIS


call mailid (user, dir)

character user(ARB), dir(ARB)



DESCRIPTION

Mailid is used by the "mail" tool to pick up the name of the
current user and the directory in which the tool should
search for mail files.


IMPLEMENTATION

You'll have to rummage through your system manuals to find
a way to pick up the name/ID of the current user.
If you can't pick up the name of a home directory from the
system, you can search for it in the address file, which is
used by mail to locate the address to which to send mail.
