OK, suggestions are welcome, as always.

I just uploaded a new package. I updated a lot of documentation,
and made lr_log2mail not rely on mutt any longer. (Something you'll
like, i guess... :) Furthermore, a lot of bugs have been fixed.
Thanks to everybody reporting these.

If you'd like to upgrade (of course, that's what I'd advise), 
you can run 

  make uninstall

in the directory were you make-d your old package. This will remove
all installed files. Directory layout will stay, however. Afterwards,
you can untar, build and install a new version as documented in
http://logreport.org/pub/lr-20001213/INSTALL (the install procedure
hasn't changed since last release.)

Thanks :) I'm a very happy man now.

I'll get it connected to my network tomorrow evening, I hope. Than
I can start working on fixing the shellscripts, so that they'll not
only run on Linux, FreeBSD and OpenBSD, but also on SUN Solaris.

Bye,

Joost
