XMH has a habit of throwing up error windows when doing the simplest
tasks. I presume they are the output that goes to "stderr" or the
equivalent. I asked olc if they could be turned on and jik thought
not. If they reported serious or important messages only, then they'd
be acceptable. Mostly the messages are trivial, announcing errors
related to setting the current folder -- I'm sure you've seen them.
When I do a -geometry to set the size of the window, the error windows
that come up fill up most of the screen.
I should be able to either redirect stderr or turn off bugs reports or
something like that. Otherwise, I'll start figuring out rmail.
