I've had these crashes when adding/removing mailboxes, therefore I
almost always edit the configuration by hand. The config file is
stored in $HOME/.gbuffyrc, UNLESS you have a $HOME/GNUstep/
directory (for example, if you use WindowMaker, it will automatically
create it), in which case it will read $HOME/GNUstep/Defaults/GBuffy.
In both cases the format of the file is the same, and should be quite
easy to figure out.

The use of the file in GNUstep took me quite by surprise the first
time I encountered it. Suddenly my configuration file was not being
read! It took me a while to figure out that I had run WindowMaker
once
(I don't normally use it), so now gbuffy was trying to find things
somewhere else.

Shameless plug: if you use MH folders, make sure you check out my
patch for making gbuffy use the MH unseen sequence correctly. The
patch is in the Files section of this forum.
