G'day Peter,

 BS> Well, it works now, so it wasn't a bug.. The problem was that
 BS> maximus could find the menu which is "message", but on my system
 BS> it uppercase so it's "MESSAGE", and Linux is case sentitive.

 BS> Does anyone have a clue where to find the place where "message" is?

 PK> Boy, does this ring bells here....;-)  Yes... the MENU 
 PK> NAME may be CRITICAL to the operation of Maximus in non-
 PK> obvious ways!!!

Okay, hardcoding is kinda bad :(

 PK> The following is a rather verbose message I sent to 
 PK> Scott outlining what happened here and in reply he 
 PK> confirmed my finding's, however I can't find his 
 PK> reply.....;-( I thought he said that future code should 
 PK> remove this issue but maybe it never got into the 
 PK> source you are using. Anyway, the following might be of 
 PK> use to you...

We might be able to correct for it. Just adding a extra configuration
parameter or? What would you propose.

.....

 PK> Anyway, thanks for some excellent S/W, its been doing a grand job
 PK> and on OS/2 its totally stable (except for QWK replies.....;-)).

I know that issue..

 PK> I hope this helps............pk.

It did thanks alot! :)

Regards,
Bo
