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? :^)
