I thought that is what I had gleaned from the source. This is just weird.

I sudo apt-get purged then sudo apt-get installed which installed the 2.019 version of the package. Still no Courier. Purged again then installed from the source which is version 2.020. Still no Courier.

I even went so far as to grab a year 2007 version of the Courier.pm file from the old source on CPAN .... no Courier! All my file and directory permissions look reachable. It has got to be something funky about this Linux Mint 15 install.

I really should quit obsessing about this but I hate not being able to solve a good mystery!

Thanks so much for your time, Robert M.
