I'm currently at work, so I cannot try this locally.

I have done several tests yesterday in order to see if this misbehaviour is actually linked to any special MUA's. What I see is that messages written with the following MUA's mess up the display : IceDove 1.5 Kmail 1.9 Claws Mail 3.1 Evolution 2.12 and .... Mutt 1.5.13 (in fact my own messages...) But the thing is that the same MUA's don't always behave the same ... for some posters, there will be problem with say Icedove while others won't have any problems... You tell me why ... > I'd still check LINES and COLUMNS first, though. Checked and it seems ok. > Regards, > Gary Thanks Gary for paying attention to my problem. Best regards, Steve
