I tried searching google with different terms now and after going through a few hoops settled on fixing the spool and folder variables. Earlier, I had the following two lines in my .muttrc set spoolfile=imap://<a href="http://imap.server.edu/INBOX" target="_blank">imap.server.edu/INBOX</a>. # Default spoolfile set folder=imap://<a href="http://imap.server.edu" target="_blank">imap.server.edu</a> # Dir. that contains all mail files I just replaced imap: with imaps: and now mutt doesn't ask for the password the second time. Now if anyone can explain the reason behind this, it would icing on the cake. Thanks. -- Please reply to this list only.

Not only does it work well, it also prints and scans 11 X 17. It also was a whole lot easier to get up and working with ubuntu than it was with the window Xp machine. I currently am working on an issue with a HP laserjet 4250. It will not affect most people but if you print from the command lines it ignores CUPS -o options for postscript files things like turning duplex on and off. As long as you want the default options or print from things like Open Office it is fine. Of course this printer also loses options from windows if you use the postscript driver instead of the pcl driver. The Openprinting.org site well allow you to check everything out before you buy. Also our local Office Max lets you return items for 15 days so you can make sure you are happy with how it prints. Linda ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: "Tence T.

You might ask on the Debian list since they know so much more about Mutt. It doesn't matter that you are a Ubuntu Hardy user at all since everything is the same. ;-} Cybe R.
