-your environment.  Presently, XEmacs supports lockf, flock, and dot
-locking.  Specify the locking method via the --mail-locking=METHOD
-option to configure.  Valid values for METHOD are --mail-locking are

+For most platforms, configure or the src/s file have the preferred
+method for locking mail spool files preconfigured.  Otherwise you must

+objective merits."  XEmacs must use the same method as other mail
+utilities on your system, or you will lose mail.
