I have examined all send-hook's that include `set' commands. I thought that, perhaps, quotes were required around the send-hook/signature lines; but, that makes no difference. I have also looked at all `set ' lines, excluding those that contain either `=no' or `=yes', assuming that one of these now is boolean as opposed to accepting other data. <http://www.helices.org/tmP/muttrc> Remember, I haven't modified this ~/.muttrc in many weeks. It was working, or -- at least -- not spewing any errors, until I went through a massive Debian upgrade, that included mutt going from v1.5.5 to v1.5.6. Any pointers are welcome.
