I was fooled into thinking things were working when I had deinstalled 0.9.8 and things started working again. I reinstalled 0.9.8 and things broke again, with no other changes. Now I'm reinstalling 0.9.7g and hoping for the best. I guess I have to install 0.9.8 and clean install everything that depends on it, at a time when I can have everything broken for several hours. Just rebuilding cyrus-imap, cyrus-sasl, and exim didn't do it. -- Mark Edwards mark@antsclimbtree.com cell: +46704070332
