Cool! Much obliged! You know - it's strange how life goes! I'm an old crock (63 yrs), and I first got a computer back in 1980. I've been hacking some kind of code ever since the first day. I've learned Perl4 and Perl5, PHP, TCL/Tk, and a few others - some fairly well, others, not so much! But I've _never_ had to apply a "patch"! I must have lived a very sheltered cyberspace life! ;) Again, many thanks! I let you know how the patch went! -- Duke _______________________________________________ Bug-mailutils mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-mailutils
