Name        : elm
Version 7.2 : 2.5.6-3 
Version 7.3 : 2.5.6-4
Summary     : The elm mail user agent.
Description :
Elm is a terminal mode email user agent. Elm includes all standard
mailhandling features, including MIME support via metamail. Elm is
still used by some people, but is no longer in active development. If
you have used Elm before and you are devoted to it, you should install
the elm package. If you want to use metamail's MIME support, you also
need to install the metamail package.
Install the screen package if you need a screen manager that can
support multiple logins on one terminal.

Notes: 
RHL 8.0 did not ship with elm.
This is a re-issue to fix the fact that the 7.3 rpms were not gpg signed.  
Now they've been signed and therefor the sha1sums have changed.

Please test and comment in bugzilla.
