Hm, I found and fixed that one now: Somehow the new version has ~/fido/etc/husky has base location for config files while mine reside in /usr/local/etc/fido. Not even the -c switch on the commandline will convince msged to use a different path.

That would probably be the a better solution (I spotted the updated path in huskymak.cfg meanwhile). As I was hoping for a quick way to move the system to new hardware (and OS), I just threw in another soft link for now. Looks like something is working, at least msged comes up and I can read mails.
