My err, it is not /etc/muttrc, but /etc/Muttrc. And "case" is important in linux. You more than likely do not have ~/.muttrc unless you copied it there or constructed it from scratch. Copy /etc/Muttrc to ~/.muttrc change permissions to your <user> and "users" then edit it to suit. google for muttrc and use the examples to make your ~/.muttrc suit your particular preferences. There are *many* samples but take the time to understand what you do. The mutt man pages are quite good. Pay particular attention to: man muttrc -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net
