I set it up and continued to use Mutt (which is still my favorite MUA though I have to use OE and Thunderbird now) with no further problems.

DAve -- Three years now I've asked Google why they don't have a logo change for Memorial Day. Why do they choose to do logos for other non-international holidays, but nothing for Veterans?
