Ok, now which kind of UNIX are you using?  And, more importantly,
what kind of MTA are you using?  Let me guess:

"submit" gives it away.  You're running MMDF, right?  If not, I'm
lost... So, let's say you are.  You need to recompile Mush with
-DMMDF defined and perhaps other things as well.  The README file
has a set of things to do if you are using MMDF.  Once you do that
stuff, you should be set.

However, I am confused about something.  If you have been using
Mush that didn't have MMDF defined, you shouldn't have been able
to use it at all.  It sounds, from your other comments, that you
can sometimes send mail ok and you are certainly reading mail
without any problems.

Keep this discussion on the net -- don't mail me about it -- I
don't know all there is to know about MMDF and I think that
others will be able to help and others still will learn something
from it.
