Yikes :-)

Cool; that is helpful.


% use the rest of the stuff from the system directories.  What is the
% best way to do this?  I am thinking I guess about compile parameters,
% etc.

I would run ./configure to point to wherever their stuff is (set prefix
to /usr/local or whatever) and mirror their mutt; you can run their mutt
with -v to see if they have homespool or dotlock or slang or ncurses
defined and so on.  Once you get the sucker build, just copy the
resultant mutt binary into your personal bin and you're off; it's no
different from using their mutt which happens to live in /usr/local/bin
or wherever.

% Thanks.

HTH & HAND

P.S. -- Did you get my off-list mail late last week?
