Hi Willy, I got the +DEBUG when i ran that command.
When i went to my ~ directory, and did the touch command, nothing happened. I too thought i might not have permission, but i have written things to this directory. Does mutt have to be chmod ed to do this? I execute the program, but have never changed its permissions.
