I apologize... the actual error didn't get 'yanked.'
checking host system type... configure: error: cannot guess host type; you must
specify one
I was trying to install the newer version. I need the 'us' version that suppports PGP
- and from what I understand, the version that comes with RH 6.1 does NOT.
Any help would be greatly appreciated...

That was the entire result? It just stopped after checking system type?
I don't think I've ever seen such a thing.

If you are able to use Mutt without any trouble, then what exactly is
the problem that you are reporting? Your subject says "error during
configure" but there are no errors above. Most people don't have the
autoconf tools installed, so "missing" is the proper thing to print out.

Indeed.
