 ml>> yes, the exact error message is almost always necessary...

 RS> fido@Thinkpad:~$ echoscan.shSMAPI ERROR: wrongly sized subfield occured!

weird... might be a corrupted message area... what format are you using for
that message base area??

 ml>> are you on 32bit or 64bit linux?
 ml>> is your husky stuff compiled for 32bit or 64bit?

 RS> 64 bit linux, and I am sorry as I set this up all within a script
 RS> I do not know what husky is 32 or 64 How can I check for you?

run file on the binaries...

$ file h*

but looking at mine above, it doesn't look like it would be a 32bit vs 64bit
problem...

hummm...

hahaha... you could maybe paste it to pastebin and give us the link to the
paste... or just make it available via http or ftp or similar... maybe...
