I use mc and often edit config files with it's editor (httpd, postfix,
amavis, and so on)

I recently struck a problem where 'things went wrong' and I was told what

I'm *not* blaming mc for my problems, BUT just asking:

is mc OK to edit config files, with regard to what I'm being told I need
to do

I've rarely edited any config file with anything else. It might be that some
broken config file users might have a problem with a config file ending with
no newline, but I don't recall ever running across one, and it's plenty easy
to end the file with an extra <RETURN> just to be sure.
