I have my mail and mutt on a server and remotely access it so there is only one place for configuration files and .... I open a tmux session, similar to screen, and remotely access that tmux session from where-ever. I even read my mail on site from another computer. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net
