That didn't work either.  So far what I've done is to add the lines in the patch
above to my autohandler file.  I've adjusted html/Elements/Refresh to point to a
default that isn't 0.  I've added the above lines to my RT_Siteconfig.pm file.

I'm beginning to think this is broken and until a major fix is made, it won't
work without cobbled-together code.

Keep up with me and what I'm up to: http://theillien.blogspot.com
