Has anybody else run across this stupid behavior?
There is something wrong with your setup, and the usual is a corrupted config file somewhere in ~/.pan2 (BTW, which version of pan?). I would try renaming ~/.pan2 to move it out of the way and then let pan start fresh with a new config directory. If you have lots of valuable settings in your present .pan2 directory you can try copying the old files one at a time to your new .pan2 directory until you hit the corrupt one. Then maybe you can deduce what's corrupted and let us know. _______________________________________________ Pan-users mailing list Pan-users@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pan-users
