[Pan-users] How to fix "Unable to save ... Permission denied"?


From: Beartooth
Subject: [Pan-users] How to fix "Unable to save ... Permission denied"?
Date: Thu, 26 Jan 2012 21:49:35 +0000 (UTC)
User-agent: Pan/0.135 (Tomorrow I'll Wake Up and Scald Myself with Tea; GIT 30dc37b master)

        When I installed the OS on this computer, I goofed something up 
in my usual userid, btth. Rather than hunt it down, I jusy made a new 
userid, bttth. Most things work about as expected, but I keep having 
trouble with Pan. I copied my .pan2 from /home/btth on my next best 
machine to /home/bttth on this one. But Pan keeps trying to use the wrong 
one:

        [... and so on, ad nauseam]

        I've changed btth to bttth everywhere I can find in Pan, but it's 
still doing it. Where is the instance I have to change??
