What I'm wondering is whether you've setup the account properly in Evo - I've seen this before - and my resolution was to delete the account and then recreate the account (after deleting the account, run a "killev" and then fire it up again) - Evo generally works wonderfully with mbox/mh style mailboxes... I use Evo in conjunction with fetchmail grabbing stuff, tossing it to sendmail, then to an mbox in /var/spool/mail - so I'm there already... ...and actually, I'm going to move to IMAP shortly instead of all the rest - just because I can (and share it with the wife-unit)... -- Sun Mar 30 08:20:01 EST 2003 08:20:01 up 8 days, 20:07, 4 users, load average: 0.17, 0.12, 0.09 ------------------------------------------------------------------ | __ __ | kuhn media australia | | / ,, /| |'-. | http://kma.0catch.com | | .\__/ || | | |=================================| | _ / `._ \|_|_.-' | stephen kuhn | | | / \__.`=._) (_ | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | |/ ._/ |"""""""""| | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | |'. `\ | | | icq: 5483808 | | ;"""/ / | | | | | smk ) /_/| |.-------.| | mobile: 0410-728-389 | | ' `-`' " " | Berkeley, New South Wales, AU | ------------------------------------------------------------------ linux user:267497 * MDK 9.1 * PC/Mac/Linux/Networking/Consulting machine no:194239 * RH 7.3 * Sales - Service - Support - Tutor ------------------------------------------------------------------ ** This messages was composed on a 100% Microsoft free computer ** Lisa: Remember, Dad.
