Exactly. As a MSWindows app, it is a sane island in an unsane sea. A
crippled version was provided by my previous ISP (hard coded to their
address). When I changed ISPs, Forte was nice enough to provide me the
key to open the full version, at no charge. When I can get Mutt and
Exim to play nicely, I'll make the switch.

Yes, help is there. I feel certain that it is some nit-picky (local)
syntax thing. It took ages for me to figure out that I needed to
enclose the regexps in curly braces. So, as I said---it's time to RTFM
again.
