Hmmmm blame gcc :-) The error message displays as '0' but is e2:80:98 30 e2:80:99 I HATE UTF-8, it wouldn't be as bad if it were a bijection. Lets see if adding 'LANG=C' in the shell script I use to do kernel builds is enough. I also managed to send parts 1 to 6 without deleting the RE: (I have to cut&paste from wordpad into a 'reply-all' of the first message I send. Work uses mimecast and it has started bouncing my copy of every message I send to the lists.) Maybe I should start using telnet to send raw SMTP :-) David - Registered Address Lakeside, Bramley Road, Mount Farm, Milton Keynes, MK1 1PT, UK Registration No: 1397386 (Wales)
