Anybody else have this problem? xbiff doesn't respond when 
I have mail in /var/mail.  I initiated xbiff and specifically
set the mail directory to be //var/mail, then sent myself
mail.   Nothing!

biff y does work, just not xbiff.  Same story if I am logged
in as `kline' or `root', BTW.

Any clues??
