David,

I think it is just a matter of installing the correct package on
Ubuntu.  One of the problems I had with Debian and Ubuntu is that
things I expected weren't installed.

If we knew which package mail was in, it would probably be just as
easy to install it as it would be to install mutt.

By the way, very impressive work with the build machine.  I think this
is quite an accomplishment, over and above the usual open source
project.

Typically, users without the technical skills to build a project are
totally dependent on the release cycle.  For ooRexx, I would think the
number of users who would struggle to build the interpreter would be
high.  With the build machine, anyone interested in a fix or new
feature can get it without having to be able to build the interpreter
themselves.
