If it doesn't run at all for nonroot, chmod a+x `which mutt`. But I have a feeling that it's either something more like readonly user mailboxes or only root having a ~/.muttrc (i.e. no /usr/local/etc/Muttrc). More details on what the problem is would help, as well as the output of "mutt -v". The readonly mailbox problem is common in Red Hat, and shows symptoms like 87 thesis% ls -ld /var/spool/mail drwxrwxr-x 2 root mail 1024 Aug 10 21:56 /var/spool/mail/ and is fixed by configuring and compiling mutt with setgid support. -- Penguins are so sensitive to my needs. - Lyle Lovett Robert I.
