patchlist.sh *is* executable. Or rather I should say *was*. I couldn't wait so I downloaded 1.3.27 at a friend's place (he has cable internet). I am now running 1.3.27 but I would still like to know why I got these errors. Also, are there any specific steps that need to be taken when patching mutt either using diff's or third-party patches? regards, Sharukh. -- Dr. Sharukh K. R. Pavri Mumbai, India.
