Bug Report and workaround in 2.1.1devel downloaded 29aug02

Platform:  linux x86, gcc 2.95.2, Suse 6.?, kernel 2.2.16

Problem:

When I select "Transfer & network preferences" GUI
and then select "use" it will core dump in:

        settings_net.cxx line 101 (strncpy)

Workaround:

It will not core dump if I first select the "save sent mail in outbox"
box in the "Send" Panel before selecting "use".  I suspect .config.outboxname
isn't fully init'd until that happens, but I haven't had time yet to
trace it back.

Also:

Verizon is now requiring SMTP Authentication for their DSL
customers(of which I am one).  I have successfully used XCmail 2.1.1devel
(after the workaround) to send email using SMTP Auth.  And if this
gets through, then that'll be two emails.

Thanks and kudos on a great program.
