Are you running anything "nonstandard"? The only thing I can think of at the moment is sup. Or wu-ftpd. Perhaps elm+mime (2.1) which occasionialy gets a signal 11 (intercepted) when I'm reading a mail with german umlauts. Interestingly elm+mime chokes predictably when I'm trying to reply to that one persons mail. I will try to reproduce it once I'm sitting at the console. > > > --Chris Christoph P. U.
