Okay, I found the Config file, and, lo and behold, it *already* said 
8bpp.  *sigh* I try to run it, and get the exact same problem.  :(

This is a by-product of the mailer I use, pine.  I always login as root 
(bad habit, I know), and pine automatically puts my messages from 
root@domain.  Since I'm on a dynamic IP, if I put my real domain name, 
replies go to my sysadmin, which is not a happy thing.  I put 
dontmailhere as my domain name so that the mail will at least bounce 
where the sender knows there is a problem, rather than having it all go 
to my sysop.  Clear now? :^)
