trouble with MH
Hello, I sent this message several days ago, but saw no responses so I'm suspecting I mailed it improperly. If the original message was posted, then sorry for the double post. The problem is that I get the following error message when I try to send a message using MH: post: problem initializing server; [BHST] premature end-of-file on socket send: message not delivered to anyone I feel its just a matter of configuration. Any suggestions? Original message: -- I normally use elm for my emailing needs, but I recently decided to upgrade to mh and exmh. I installed those packages and their dependencies on my debian 1.3 system. Everything seemed to install properly and looks fine but I can't seem to send a message. This is what happens: To: ken cc: Subject: Test number 4 This is a test of the mail system --ken What now? send post: problem initializing server; [BHST] premature end-of-file on socket send: message not delivered to anyone What now? quit whatnow: draft left on /home/ken/Mail/drafts/4 leisure:~ leisure:~ send -verbose -watch Use /home/ken/Mail/drafts/4? y -- Posting for All Recipients -- post: problem initializing server; [BHST] premature end-of-file on socket send: message not delivered to anyone I normally use elm on top of smail and this works great.

If the original message was posted, then sorry for the double post. I've seen it several days ago -- probably nobody knows the answer. :-( Perhaps try mh mailing list (is there one?) or Usenet? The problem is that I get the following error message when I try to send a message using MH: post: problem initializing server; [BHST] premature end-of-file on socket send: message not delivered to anyone I feel its just a matter of configuration. Any suggestions? FWIW all the configuration I've done in mh was to change path to maildir in ~/.mh_profile. I did about as much config for qmail (I have qmail for MTA, also debian package) and everything worked. Any suggestions? Yeah... UTSL...

I'm currently having a little trouble compiling the documentation using teTex - ;-) The Makefiles that build thes docs use some script that deletes the output (.dvi) depending of the return of the latex command. I hacked that feature out of the makefile and the resulting .dvi was usefull (if not completly correct as i remeber). I blamed this on me not succesfully seting up the old debian tex pakages but it might help You to HTH /Lars Any suggestions? --ken -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
