I can't say for this particular pc as it could still be contaminated 
with one or more binaries from earlier version. I won't be happt 
until I move to new pc that's not had any earlier version installed.

I tried to run gdb last night specifying the running XMail and pid.
gdb-internal-error: legacy_fetch_link_map_offsets called without 
legacy link_map support enabled. I've no experience of debugging so 
just grepped for some setting to enable that support without success.

I also tried make of gdb from source which fell over after some long 
period with top showing very high cpu and free memory down to a few 
hundred KB. Eventual error was that pkgsrc gdb was broken and would 
be dropped if not fixed.

I'd like confirmation from another user of XMail on NetBSD 3.0 that 
it's running fine or otherwise.

That's as far as I've got although I've now replaced most precompiled 
packages with ones compiled on desktop and had no more coredumps from 
XMail.
