this is good to hear.
stephen and i have tracked the mail corruption down to something that's going on
at gwyn -- it's nothing that i'm doing. so you don't need to report mail
problems -- although it would be nice in the meantime if we could figure out a
way around this problem!!

Although the patch did not apply cleanly:
patching file nt/xemacs.mak
Hunk #8 FAILED at 651.
Hunk #14 FAILED at 949.
Hunk #19 FAILED at 1246.
3 out of 27 hunks FAILED -- saving rejects to file nt/xemacs.mak.rej
patching file src/Makefile.in.in
Hunk #3 FAILED at 93.
Hunk #6 FAILED at 239.
Hunk #10 FAILED at 423.
Hunk #12 FAILED at 545.
Hunk #16 FAILED at 732.
5 out of 27 hunks FAILED -- saving rejects to file src/Makefile.in.in.rej
patching file src/chartab.c
it did solve my build problems.
Thanks,
