I didn't change much: just set to show only subject, from, time, lines 
and/or bytes.

Yes: when others than research scientists started using computers. If a 
program isn't supposed to stop but does without a user asking (excluding 
accidentally) everyone I know (even older 
programmers/scientists/instructors I've known since early 1990s, and in 
that time) say 'crash'.

After moving preferences.xml I restarted pan--no crash--but now don't 
see message bodies (might just be my night themes... I'll try tomorrow) 
and saw the below.

(gtk-chtheme:29761): WARNING **: 05:13:42.069: Invalid borders specified 
for theme pixmap: 
/usr/share/themes/Menta/gtk-2.0/widgets/Others/null.png, borders don't 
fit within the image.

I don't know what that theme is doing but most/all daytime others I used 
botched scrollbars and/or analogue clock or emit too much blue.

** (gtk-chtheme:29761): WARNING **: 05:13:42.069: invalid source 
position for bilinear gradient
** (gtk-chtheme:29761): WARNING **: 05:13:42.069: invalid source 
position for vertical gradient

Can I opt-out of gradients or are those errors also in Menta theme?   I 
don't know what X software installed it but it's nice...
