org-columns-compile-format: Wrong type argument: stringp, 1

org-columns-compile-format: Wrong type argument: stringp, 1

[Sharon Kimble]

I am having great difficulty, in fact its impossible, to send an email
or newsgroup posting. Whenever I try I get this showing in the
mini-buffer -

╭────
│org-columns-compile-format: Wrong type argument: stringp, 1
╰────

I've found where I can customize it, but what should it be please?

Thanks
Sharon.

Whenever you get such an error (e.g. void-function or wrong type
argument), enable "Options => Enter Debugger on Error", and reproduce
the problem.  This will give you a backtrace which will make it much
easier to figure out what's going on.
