Segmentation fault
A several things you can do (without me reading through the config file) to debug are: 1) Compile mutt with the debug configure flag and activate it using the "-d 5" switch/arg. (Debug configure flag is likely already compiled in if you're using a binary.) Then, you'll find a new debug file called $HOME/.muttdebug0. The cause will likely be within the last statement. 2) Compile with -g -ggdb CFLAGS and run mutt through gdb. (ie. $ gdb mutt) 3) Last, and probably the only way to trace a segfault is using strace. ie $ strace mutt. It takes a little deciphering, but sometimes is usually enough to find the bug -- I would try this first. -- Roger http://rogerx.freeshell.org/
