Since I keep the machine updated with | yum so I thought it might be a recent mutt update. Odd. Personally, I delete with 'd' in mutt. I would suspect one of three things: - possibly Delete is no longer sending what it used to (suspect your terminal emulator) or the code from Delete (usually DEL (127), but often BS (backspace, 8)). - mutt may have changed its behaviour (unlikely) - You may have a different mapping to that key in mutt (also unlikely) If you type '?' to mutt it should display the keyboard mapping; you can check that delete is bound to delete-message. You might to better to join the mutt-users list here: and ask there. http://www.mutt.org/mail-lists.html Cheers, -- Cameron Simpson <cs@xxxxxxxxxx> DoD#743 http://www.cskk.ezoshosting.com/cs/ Reality is that which refuses to go away when I stop believing in it. - Phillip K.
