Ok, thanks! I've now made the changes to .bash_profile as well as setting up the file in it and the path to it, and tried again to use Terminal from Pan, still with no joy. Fwiw, I did try opening Terminal from the launcher on a panel, and commanding Alpine. It not only worked normally; it did it in spite the fact that I already had Alpine running (against the same account) in a gnome-terminal tab; and I got the message at my other address. -- Beartooth Staffwright, PhD, Neo-Redneck Linux Convert Remember I know precious little of what I am talking about. _______________________________________________ Pan-users mailing list Pan-users@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pan-users
