Hello Russel and mutt friends, If ``touch .muttdebug0'' did not create the .muttdebug0 file then I guess that you are missing the user right to create a file. The touch command is so basic.

So you get +DEBUG in the `mutt -v|grep BUG'
output, not -DEBUG?
If you cannot find ~/.muttdebug0 (in your home
directory), then maybe installation paths for the
build have been screwed up so that the home
directory is being looked up at some /foo/bar
prefix.
You can always check what's going on by running
mutt via strace:
strace -f -o /tmp/mutt.strace mutt -d4
After entering mutt immediately press `q' to exit
to cmdline, then you can check the strace logfile
for .muttdebug:
xrgtn@x505:~$ strace -f -o /tmp/mutt.strace mutt -d4
Debugging at level 4.
xrgtn@x505:~$ grep muttdebug /tmp/mutt.strace | tail -n2
26573 open(/home/xrgtn/.muttdebug0,
O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_LARGEFILE|O_NOFOLLOW, 0600) = 3
26573 lstat64(/home/xrgtn/.muttdebug0, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0600, st_size=0,
...}) = 0
xrgtn@x505:~$
I'm assuming you have GNU/Linux system. For HP-UX
you should use `tusc' and for Tru64/OSF you should
use `truss' instead IIRC.
For Windows, well, I thought there were some
vaguely similar utilities by Mark Russinovich and
regarding MacOS X I'm like ... I just don't
remember.

Re: SMTP Authentication fails with 1.5.23 on Verizon
Hi All, After doing the touch command, and not seeing any results, i look this morning and there appears to be SEVERAL .muttdebug files. I wouldn't have thought a touch could have caused that, but there they are. I've attached a text file with what i think is the relevant text for the smtp failure. Thanks to everyone for putting up with me and helping me. Sorry if i was a pain. Thanks again!

Re: SMTP Authentication fails with 1.5.23 on Verizon
Hi Willy, I got the +DEBUG when i ran that command. When i went to my ~ directory, and did the touch command, nothing happened. I too thought i might not have permission, but i have written things to this directory. Does mutt have to be chmod ed to do this? I execute the program, but have never changed its permissions. Thanks, Russ On Tue, Sep 16, 2014 at 04:54:24PM +0200, Willy Offermans wrote: Hello Russ, Just to be clear, the following. What does ``mutt -v | grep DEBUG'' give? If the answer is +DEBUG, then ... From man mutt: ``If mutt was complied with +DEBUG log debugging output to ~/.muttdebug0. Level can range from 1-5 and effects verbosity. A value of 2 is recommended.'' Did you look for a .muttdebug0 file? If the file is not present, than you probably do not have rights to write to a file in that directory. Check your rights by running ``touch .muttdebug0'' Did you create a .muttdebug0 file? Have a look into /var/log/messages or any availabe log file!
Re: SMTP Authentication fails with 1.5.23 on Verizon
Hi Tom and all, I tried using the -d option, (i used -d4) when i started mutt, but i STILL didn't get a .muttdebug file. I tried the locate command as was also suggested and it returned nothing. So i'm still trying. Thanks everyone!

Hello Russel, From ``man mutt'': -- If mutt was complied with +DEBUG log debugging output to ~/.muttdebug0. Level can range from 1-5 and effects verbosity. A value of 2 is recommended.

Re: SMTP Authentication fails with 1.5.23 on Verizon
To all thank you. I discovered that I had not compiled with debug. I thought I had. Now that I recompiled try and run I keep getting an error couldn't lock and then my mail file. I saw this previously but I can't find how I did that again? Can someone please tell me how to set that so I can get mail.

Hello, 13.09.2014, 18:11, Russell Urquhart russurquha...@verizon.net: Can someone tell me where these log files are/what their names are? I can't seem to find them readily. The last log file is in your home directory and it's named `.muttdebug0'. It's a dotfile, so `ls' will show it only when run with `-a' or `-A' option. -- With best regards, xrgtn

Re: SMTP Authentication fails with 1.5.23 on Verizon
What operating system are you using? If it is a Linux system, you would use ls -alt .muttdebug* to list the mutt debug files from the command line. And need to do it from the command line, a file viewer will not detect the files, unless you possibly symlink to them with non-dot.file names. You have to put the dot at the start of the file names, those are part of the file names, that make the files not seen in general file searches unless you take special steps to make sure they are listed.

End of included message If on Linux/UNIX, a good and fast way to search is the locate command. It is in the mlocate package on my Fedora system. You could do $ locate '*muttdebug*' and it will find any file with that string in the name, even hidden dot-files. You may have to run locate as root if you think the file could be in a directory you can't normally access. Note, locate uses a database/index that is only updated periodically, typically daily. So it will not find a file you recently created. To manually update the DB run as root updatedb. But it will take a while to complete. jon -- Jon H. LaBadie j...@jgcomp.com 11226 South Shore Rd.

Just to be sure you created the .debug files, don't forget the -d# command line option when envoking mutt to debug. Try to keep the session as -short as possible just enough work to show the problem. This keeps the log -files more manageable. The # in the -d option defines the debug level, 0-4 higher number provides more details.
