It _should_ read your muttrc last. Is it possibly that you are failing to _undo_ something that was set in /usr/local/etc/muttrc? Can you post all your hdr_order and associated lines? And a copy of the lines you removed from the main muttrc. Then we can see what muttrc sees and deduce what it saw for comparison. -- Cameron Simpson <c...@zip.com.au> DoD#743 http://www.cskk.ezoshosting.com/cs/ Who's chopper is that? It's Zed's.
