Yeah, I was staying away from that as the manual said it was higly
deprecated. 

I take it that the $pgp_outlook_compat sorts out the body of the email
and the $pgp_create_traditional puts a --clearsign sig at the foot of
the mail rather than attach it?

Okay, 
I have tried this

tar xzvf mutt.1.3.25i.tar.gz
cd mutt-1.3.25
./configure --enable-pop --enable-imap
make
make install

.....and then
 
patch -i patch-1.3.15.sw.pgp-outlook.1 (patch in same dir)
./configure --enable-pop --enable-imap
make 
make install

and that wasn't having an effect.
I saw nothin in the man page for patch like what you've suggested
(though i'm sure you are right)?

As I'm sure you can see I'm really not that expert at compiling/patching
and generally fiddling around so if there is a simple all-in-one idiots
way to get all I need then let me have at it!

I'd appreciate your comments on the difference between what I was trying
and what you have suggested, inexperience does not mean I don't want to
learn a trick or two :)

Many thanks for your time on this
