Reading mail
Emacs stores the mail you receive while using rmail in an
RMAIL file (by default this is /RMAIL). When you start
rmail emacs loads in the RMAIL file and changes
to a special mode for rmail. In this mode, you can move
forward and backward within a mail message by using SPACE and
DEL respectively. Scrolling through mail messages is effected
by using p for previous message and n for next message.
It is also possible to specify explicitly which message to visit; this
is accomplished by typing a number representing the message number of
the message you wish to visit in the RMAIL file and then typing
j. Typing 1 j will move you immediately to the first
message in the file; > will move you to the last message.
