first thing to try is "strace -p pid-mutt" from a different terminal. You could also try $gdb #attach pid-mutt #bt - should give at least a backtrace where it is hanging on most architectures. If you suspect server problem try wireshark. Richard --- Name and OpenPGP keys available from pgp key servers
