I tried setting up the configuration for groups so that the screen configuration would be stable, but emacs complained that the summary buffer didn't exist (I suppose it was being rebuilt). Is there a way around this? TIA, -- David Abrahams * Boost Consulting dave@boost-consulting.com * http://www.boost-consulting.com
