You are not being persnickity. I simply misunderstood the documentation. As was wisely pointed out to me the 'source ~/mailaliases' command needs to be inside the .muttrc - so that mutt executes it, or as you suggest, by putting mutt into command mode. I foolishly was simply issueing the source command on a command line in a tcsh source, which is a perfectly valid shell command that chokes on the totally invalied (as far as being tcsh ) mutt alias file. I do wish I had read the documentation more carefully, but I suspect I would still have been able to misunderstand it. -- Josh Kuperman [EMAIL PROTECTED]
