There are a number of things to consider here:
1. Well, I don't know if it's *that* stupid, but it's strange.
2. Did you install the package via the port, or did you do it some
other way? I had no problems at all with the port.
3. What date did you have set? I seem to recall you sending mail
(presumably recently) with a date of October 1996. That could
have confused StarWriter.
