Hi Nicholas,

"fmail scan -S"

While I was adding some debug logging to the echomail.jam processing code,
I found a bug. The paths in the echomail.jam file and those for the jam
areas in the config weren't converted to linux paths before comparing them.
On my system this wasn't a problem because of some script code that runs
after I leave golded-lnx to fix the paths to their dos versions in
echomail.jam, because of my previous hibrid system. A fixed version of
fmail.c is in your inbound...

Bye, Wilfred.
