Because its a workaround for a Debian (or some distro) Python packaging issue which should be fixed by the packager, and because I only thought of the above fix yesterday when generating the above reply. Also, it seems quite rare. Yours is only the third report I've seen which is very rare for something that would affect archiving of every message. All that said, I probably will put the above in the next patch release. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
