Or set $SHELL to /bin/sh (or bash, if present) in a wrapper around mutt when invoking it. On the few occasions I've been trapped in a tcsh for login I had my .login just reset $SHELL and exec a login insteance of it anyway. From there on it's as if your login shell really was a sane Bourne shell. -- Cameron Simpson, DoD#743 [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.zip.com.au/~cs/ I heard a funny one this weekend. I was belaying a friend on a very short problem and when she was pumped out she told me to "Let me down" and my other friend that was standing nearby said. "You were never UP!". - Bryan Laws <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
