Hello,

I'm currently trying to set up emacs. I set up feedmail as described in the 
ELisp source. I guess Emacs' send-mail-function is the one invoked when 
pressing C-c C-c, which is now set to feedmail-send-it.
Whenever i try to invoke this function, Emacs tries to run /bin/sh. Is it 
somehow possible to setup command.com as the default shell?
I tried 2 things:
-pointing the environment var SHELL to command.com
-inserting the line (setq explicit-shell-file-name "c:/windows/command.com")

But this both doesn't help. Do I need sh?
I'm absolutly new to Emacs and don't know where to go on now, any advice 
would be great!

Martin
