I am not sure if this will help, but:

- Route  main      master           log mail
+ Route  main      master           1

- Route  main      cascade          log mail
+ Route  main      cascade          "log mail"


Either way, values with whitespace must be quoted, although master may work
with *any value, that value itself simply turns it on, but I would suggest
just set it to '1'.

Also, As per your last email, make sure you don't have "Route default"
hanging around still, you can't have multiple cascades (to my knowledge).
Have you seen a virgin catalog.cfg?? It seems like you are setting up your
routes pretty standard, I suggest looking at a virgin catalog.cfg, IMO is
better than the docs on this subject WRT learning.

Also, When I was setting up mine, I seem to remember something about
declaring SpecialPage pages like ../etc/report  It may not be neccessary,
but if you don't have it, it won't hurt. I seem to remember needing it, but
maybe it was some other tweaking that I did, but it won't hurt either way.
That is also in a standard catalog.cfg, if you can get your hands on one.

PS, try setting 'report' in main, to see if you get any changes.
