Correct. I needed to check my home system to double check. My home Ubuntu system showed that it was installed from a repository, and I found rpms when I poked at http://rpm.pbone.net. I'd assume the various *BSDs have it too in their ports collections. As long as you don't leave quoted "blank" lines (which this message has), it'll handle quotes pretty well. _______________________________________________ Nmh-workers mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
