hello, ok so i have got it working ... kinda
i installed version 1.5 on the freebsd box and i had the same problems
as on the gentoo system so i installed version 1.4 on the gentoo system
and it works fine :)
There are a few things that i would like that 1.4 dosn't seem to do like
on the mail list 1.4 just shows 0 between the to () 's on unopened mails
but 1.5 shows the message size. Is it possiable to make 1.4 do this ?
Cheers,
Matty.
