<P><FONT SIZE=2>Thanks to everyone who has responded!!!</FONT>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Apparently the problem is that my Linux installation (Gentoo 1.4 rc1) installs mail in /bin/mail instead of /usr/bin/mail and the make install-config didn't catch that and I wasn't swift enough to figure out the mail line in misc_commands.cfg. BTW, Solaris seems to put it in both locations. I just added /bin/mail before the -s in misc_commands.cfg and all works fine now.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>I don't know how strange my installation is (default mail location for gentoo) but maybe it's good to look for mail in /bin/mail also? Maybe people consider gentoo broken, dunno, not a mail expert...</FONT></P>
