Subject: problem with setting up pine on SCO-UNIX

Hi,

 I've almost(?) got pine 3.89 to work on our system SCO-UNIX. The problem 
is I can't get it to understand somethings about our system. I've 
attached a debug file (.pine-debug1) that I obtained using "pine -d9". 
When I ran pine I got as far as the MAIN MENU of pine and then the system 
hangs after giving a "bad system call" message. Any ideas as to what I am 
doing wrong, or not doing ?

 BTW, bandit is not the system I am trying to set pine up on. I am 
setting it up quest which is another system at our college. Maybe quest 
needs something to be done on it before I try putting pine on. Will 
someone please try sending mail to me at "[email-masked]" 
in addition to "[email-masked]". NOTE: bandit works just 
fine to get messages to me, but quest doesn't.

 Thanks in advance,

 Chris Fullinfaw

Chris,

The .pine-debug1 file you attached was at the default debug level (2) and 
does not show anything out of the ordinary.  I have never seen the code 
for the SCO port that is floating around, so I don't know what it might 
be doing unusual.  Did it produce a "core" file when it crashed?  If so, 
do you have a symbolic debugger you can get a stack trace with?

Thanks for the report!
