What gives? 404 error, but I presume that you don't really mean something at server.com, you're just using it in a bad example. Server.com actually exists. Use example.com for examples, it's set up for that purpose. We can't tell what your problem is from that faked address. Try: lynx --head http://example.com (substituting the real address), and tell us what you get back. I suspect that the script doesn't present the right MIME types, or perhaps does so inconsistently. -- (Currently running FC4, in case that's important to the thread) Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored. I read messages from the public lists.
