Cc: ports@FreeBSD.ORG Sender: ports-owner@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk In trying to make MH behave a bit better with POP, I came across an unfortunate bodge with sc_width() in uip/scansbr.c - some modules that include it don't also include uip/trmsbr.c, where this routine is defined. It appears that we've never quite built a pop-enabled MH properly! Even with pop, it doesn't look like -rpop works properly; it technically should authenticate via your .rhosts, but does not. I have popper built to allow such authentication, for what it's worth, but without a working apop or rpop it's impossible to have "unattended operation" with inc - something that's necessary if you want to use MH+pop with a front-end like mh-e or xmh (since there's no opportunity to type a password). Any other MH enthusiasts out there who might like to work with me on trying to fix this mess? :-) Jordan
