Subject: Old (Solaris?) diff doesn't like -L parameter
The default diff on SunOS 5.9 does not like the -L option to diff. This could maybe be mentioned in the 'Known Issues' section? I doubt it is important enough to have an extra option.

Done. I've added this: The default C<diff> on SunOS 5.9 does not like the C<-L> option that C<activitymail> uses. The workaround is to install GNU C<diff>. Best, David
