Aha! I see the problem. It's those 'curly' quote characters that are
causing problems. This should work:
set attach_format = "%u%D%I %t%4n %T%.40d%> [%.7m/%.10M, %.6e%?C?, %C?, %s]"
[Technical aside]
The 'set' command breaks up the string by "-quotes and spaces, so it
sees several statements
set attach_format = “
set %u%D%I
...
[Note to self]
Teach parse_set() about curly quotes so that users can safely
cut'n'paste from guide.
Cheers,
Rich / FlatCap
