^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Really bad idea, autoconf.h is generated by make config.
Just read /usr/src/linux/README, or make distclean, make config.

And please remove that s*htty WINMAIL.DAT when posting to linux mailing
list, unless you really want to get flammed. Peoples with PPP access
to their ISP don't like to spend their money in downloading stuff
like that.
