There where some bugs in 1.6.1's handling of messages, I suggest you upgrade to
1.7.8 (CVS)  You can grab a tarball from Sourceforge, or you can download the
code directly from CVS.  1.7.8 is definately stably enough for day to day
usage, I just finished doing a "cross platform" check on it, running CSCMail on
my Solaris 7 box at work, and am glad to report 100% compatability.  I am
getting settled into my new job, and I hope to be able to finish up the few
tail end features needed to release a "1.8.0" CSCMail.	One thing I am going to
need to do is re-write the CSCMailInstaller.pl script, to make it a bit more
flexible, also, CSCMail is currently hard-coded for #!/usr/bin/perl and in some
cases perl is in other places (#!/usr/local/bin/perl on Solaris for example) 
so I am going to make that sort of thing Makefile configurable so that no
"hand" tweeking is necisary ...

Again, a call goes out to anyone running 1.7.8 who is having ANY problems to
PLEASE e-mail me and let me know what you have found, so I can make sure to get
the bug fixes into 1.8.0
