Heh. Not on that computer.  My mail's been down so I had to borrow one.
I can't find out how to set line wrap on Mutt.

It doesn't do anything. ???????I did finally get it going.  I found the refresh 
rates on the
IBM web site.

Hrumph... Mutt and I just don't get along.

As I was saying before Mutt went nuts; I found the monitor refresh rates on the 
IBM home page.  I tweaked some other things, and it's working now.  I can't
get the resolution above 1152x864.  Actually that's what I had it set on the
Red Hat box, but at the same resolution everything shows larger on the Debian
install.

Yes.  I had the wrong driver.  Apparently Logitech with a mouse wheel
takes the Microsoft imps2 driver.  It's working fine now.

Ok.  How do I map users to virtual domains?  Sendmail lets you do that through
a virtusertable file in the format:
