There is no        NB> "/home/user" or anything close to it on that machine. ;)              If your path on linux is /home/fido for instance. Create all the paths in       FConfig as C:\fido\... . And set the environment variable as:              export FMAIL_REPLACE_DRIVE="/home"              In your scripts. Than "C:" in your config will be replaced with "/home" and       backslashes converted to slashes automatically.              Wilfred.              --- FMail-W32 2.0.1.4        * Origin: point@work (2:280/464.112)    |
