    If I'm using the wrong forum, please steer me right.

    I've installed v1.6.1 via Mandrake's contrib collection for Mandrake 8.0. I was able to guess the undocumented dependencies and got all the applicable packages. When trying to run cscmail for the first time, I got the following error message:

    gtkhtml-ERROR **: gconf is not initialized, please call gconf_init before using GtkHTML library

    and a core dump. Not knowing what to do with that, I ran it with strace, and this is the last few lines:

    What did I do wrong?

      looks like your using GtkHTML, but maybe don't have the gconf packages installed?
