On my BSD system (Sequent DYNIX V2.1), MUSH displayed error messages ("fseek
in ...") while displaying the mail message headers, even though there was no
actual error.

The fix is simple.  In the file hdrs.c, change line 21 to check explicitly
for -1 instead of non-zero values.  It seems that fseek somtimes returns
positive values.  Here is a diff.

21c21
<     if (fseek(tmpf, msg[n].m_offset, L_SET) != 0) {
---
>     if (fseek(tmpf, msg[n].m_offset, L_SET) == -1) {
