no external programs can be used

2000-08-16 Thread Daniel Kollar
Hi there, I'm a mutt newbie and I have a basic problem: It seems that no external program can be startet out of mutt. I.e.: 1) The external editor is set to "vim". When I try to compose a message, I get the following error in mutt: "Aborted unmodified message." instead that vim opens up.
