First, I'd try to get the date and time set right so that your message
shows up in e-mail clients that use DATE sorting. :)

Yes, I have a friend who is having the same trouble on a IIcx running 1.3
without X, so I'm hoping somebody will have this answer for us.

Yes, I have BitchX on my 840AV running 1.3. you can get the src at
http://www.bitchx.com/download.htm

ircii-pana-75p1.tar.gz Latest public source

after download: tar -zxvf ircii-pana-75p1.tar.gz

you'll get a directory called BitchX in which tere are instructions for
compiling it on your system. Also see

good luck,
