[mew-int 00794] connection failed, connection refused

Hi, I've some troubles with mew, since it was updated to version 2.1.52
on a debian-linux  network (I'm not root).  I receive the error message 
'connection failed, connection refused', when mew tries to read my mail.

I have tried to create a ".mew.el" as suggested in the FAQ:


(setq mew-mailbox-type 'mbox)
(setq mew-mbox-command "incm")	
(setq mew-mbox-command-arg "-d /var/spool/mail/donsmark")


Which causes emacs not to give the error message, but it does not
update my mailbox either. 

Any hints would be appreciated

Jesper
