Yes. I gave new Pan a go a while back and messed up the compile/install. To
date "old" Pan does what I need anyway so I've not re-attempted installing
new Pan. I Might have another go when it's "release" or maybe tajke the easy
way out and wait for the FreeBSD port ;-)

Just re-checked.
If don't add text in the message body I get:
ERROR: Message is empty
WARNING: Signature is more than four lines long
ERROR: Message appears to have no new content.
Not your fault or Charles' fault. My fault for not reading it properly

It's no real biggy, more of an observation. A couple of keypresses fixes
it :-)

A warm cuddy feeling :-)

I have a script to do that but it's one of those that needs editing for each
use. Maybe if I get time I can do something with it but since I don't often
post large binaries there's been little incentive for me to improve it much.
