Ron,

Which 'itteration' of v1.71 are you using ?
(mailer line of your email showed that you sent it with v1.71)

Have a look inside of mime.cfg to see if these lines are there.
(long lines here have been split for emailing)

Also have a look inside of \arachne_main\system\gui\prtbmp.ah
to see if this section is there.
