Hi Paul,
Actually I installed the binaries that I downloaded from Washington.edu. I
"think" I found the trouble this evening. The "imapd" binary that lives in
/usr/sbin I had been chmod'ing to 755 and it's been crashing, so this
evening I installed all the binaries fresh and this time chmod'ed the
imapd binary 4755. So far it's been running ok. I thought at first that
there was a bad config file somewhere because when I would trash the old
.pinerc file and allow Pine to make a new one it would run ok for that
session, but as soon as I would restart a new session it would immediately
die.
It seems to be back to it's old wonderful self now though. I'm hoping that
I did get it right with the permissions thing.
