Chip, I installed mutt 1.5.20 from sunfreeware and found that we where missing several required packages, including slang.
I installed and mutt seems to open my outbox ok, That is the index displays correctly with header and footer inverse and the index bar being visible. Typically the outbox does not show messages based on my color highlighting rules, but based on prior behavor things are looking good. I ran into what I suspect is a syntax error with the inbox when I invoke mutt with no arguments. Bad IDN "imaps.wadsworth.org". .muttrc file beings this way. [curie] ~ 233> more .muttrc set spoolfile=imap://imaps.wadsworth.org/INBOX set folder=imap://imaps.wadsworth.org/ I'm looking online now, don't know for sure that the error is where I'm looking (or what IDN stands for) but the .muttrc file is static and works under v1.5.17 (prior version on solaris x86) and 1.4.1i on Solaris sparc. thanks, Brian IMPORTANT NOTICE: This e-mail and any attachments may contain confidential or sensitive information which is, or may be, legally privileged or otherwise protected by law from further disclosure.
