[Mesquitelist] Mesquite cannot write log file

Some of you are getting a message that Mesquite does not have 
permission to write its log file.  This message is given in error. 
It is a simple bug we'll have fixed in the next version.

The message is usually given if the Mesquite_Support_Files directory 
is present, but there is no Mesquite_Log file within it.  The 
solution is to delete the Mesquite_Support_Files folder, and then 
start Mesquite again.  Some preferences will be lost.  If later you 
want to get a copy of the Mesquite_Log file, don't move it, but 
rather copy it out.
