I started using rxvt today rather than xterm and found a small difference.
when I execute popclient I get the following error messages:

popclient: clearbiffbit: fchmod: Operation not permitted
mail1 POP3 Server (Version 1.004) ready.
0 messages in folder
popclient: restorebiffbit: fchmod: Operation not permitted

Now, I had gotten these messages before when I would run popclient in the
background.  I was told it was because popclient did not have a tty to
write to.  Does this mean rxvt stdout is screwed up?

Anyone else have problems with rxvt I should now about.  I'm alread aware of
the security issues and patches available to address them.  I decided to go
to rxvt because I had heard it uses less memory then xterm, although I don't
see anything worth writing home about.
