Hi all
  I've just installed Shrike on my computer, it works great, the
only thing I see, is it doesn't accept user names with a dot in it.

From verison 9 it does nol allow dot in username. I do not understand 
why. Do someone knows ?

Anyway, you still can manually add user without dot, and later change 
passwd and shadow file by hand (as i did). It will work.

Hi Sir

  I did that. Further I did change the /etc/group file accordingly, 
such there is no problem with the account group.

  Pine works very well now, I only suffer from the well known problem 
with accentuated characters, such as e acute or e grave and so on, which 
don't appear in vi, though I can manually write some of these characters 
on the screen. I'm in text mode, level 2.

  I'm french, my LANG variable is equal to: fr_FR.UTF_8

  I set up the LC_ALL env variable equal to : C , such that the sort 
command could suitably sort some of my files.

  I suspect there is a need to set the TERM variable, although I don't 
know the value.

  I'll take a look at the mailinglist archives as soon as I have time.

  Many thanks.

  Best regards.
