Either "sendmail.ah" is missing from the system\gui directory or, more likely, your arachne.cfg is corrupt to the point that it doesn't have the proper paths available any longer. First, reload your favorite.ACF. If you don't have one, then I guess you missed the point that your favorite and working arachne.cfg should be saved as somename.ACF so you can restore it when it craps out - as it will. <g> Second, if that doesn't work, compare the contents of system\gui with a new install. > I can "reply to" and "forward", but not generate a new email from > scratch.

Yeah, those two both use Reply.htp in the main directory, so I guess it is still there. ;-) Maybe you should run CHKDSK and get a lost cluster count too. <G> - Clarence Verge. -- Using Arachne 1.66 on DSL.
