Hi,
I've looked through your .asmailrc file and it looks okay. One thing I do
note is that you're using this to check root's mail. I hope you're not
always logged in as root. It's better to create an account for yourself
and then su to root to do those things that require root.
Anyway...

The pixmaps are 8 bit pixmaps .... you'd have to go through and manually
make them a lower number of colors but I don't think that's the problem
here.
If you do an ls as shown below on your machine you should get the same
results. If you don't, something has gone wrong in the package
installation.
peloton: {11} ls /usr/X11R6/include/X11/pixmaps/e*.xpm
/usr/X11R6/include/X11/pixmaps/e-no.xpm
/usr/X11R6/include/X11/pixmaps/e4.xpm
/usr/X11R6/include/X11/pixmaps/e0.xpm
/usr/X11R6/include/X11/pixmaps/e5.xpm
/usr/X11R6/include/X11/pixmaps/e1.xpm
/usr/X11R6/include/X11/pixmaps/e6.xpm
/usr/X11R6/include/X11/pixmaps/e10.xpm
/usr/X11R6/include/X11/pixmaps/e7.xpm
/usr/X11R6/include/X11/pixmaps/e11.xpm
/usr/X11R6/include/X11/pixmaps/e8.xpm
/usr/X11R6/include/X11/pixmaps/e2.xpm
/usr/X11R6/include/X11/pixmaps/e9.xpm
/usr/X11R6/include/X11/pixmaps/e3.xpm
Can you tell me if you have these files? If you don't have them then the
wharf will just have a big blank spot there (although it should start).
