[ I apologize if this is the second post of this message - we
  lost our news for a week, so I don't know if this got out or not. ]

I am curious as to why Mush persists in setting my DELETE key to be my
erase character, when I explicitly make my BACKSPACE key my erase
character in my .profile. Also, is there any way I can tell Mush to not
do this?

On another note, whenever I switch to a new folder (other than my System
Mailbox) in toolmode, I notice that within a few moments Mush reports that
there is new mail in my System Mailbox - when in fact there isn't. Why is
it doing this?

I'm running Mush 7.0.3 "straight out of the box" on a Sun 3/60 OS4.0.1.

[ Is patch #3 still the highest released yet? ]
