	I don't know whether this will solve it, but:
	# chkfontpath --add /usr/X11R6/fonts/75dpi
	From what I see, ns needs 75dpi fonts, and these might not be
installed in your system (obviously, check that /usr/.... exists!)

	OK, that was just a suggestion. I find that using procmail with
a2ps and mutt (or sometimes even VM in Xemacs) is the optimal solution
for all my mailing needs.
