Please let me know how that goes. FYI, Debian Sarge ships with perl 5.8.4, but it isn't too hard for us to track some other version of perl, including perl 6. >Is it wise to suppress the malformed utf-8 warning messages?

I generally don't like to have common-but-harmless warnings in log files, lest they obscure more serious problems. But I'm also quite capable of doing my own filtering. For example, I currently filter out mhonarc's unrecognized character set warnings, since they are common and there's not much I can do about them. Overall, I'm not too stressed. Cheers, Jeff PS. Let me know if you want additional sample messages. I'm also willing to run patches on production and report results if that is helpful. PSS. I'm really sorry I didn't see the 'please test this release candidate' notice. I wasn't tracking the mhonarc lists very closely at the time, and I should have been. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off this list, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message text UNSUBSCRIBE MHONARC-DEV
