Have you installed icons in the "~/src/wanderlust/wl/etc/icons"

To do so, you have to write in the Makefile

[...]
# For XEmacs or Emacs 21: directory where icon files should go.
PIXMAPDIR = /home/foo/src/wanderlust/wl/etc/icons
[...]


I was hoping to avoid "make install", and was just running the
uncompiled code from the git repository.  So
"~/src/wanderlust/wl/etc/icons" is the directory containing the source
pixmap images.  but do I need to make install?  I will if I have to but
it makes me anxious...

Make install is not necessary.  I do run WL without make install and
setting the icon-folder works fine:

(add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/site-lisp/wanderlust/elmo")
(add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/site-lisp/wanderlust/wl")
(add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/site-lisp/wanderlust/utils")
...
(setq wl-icon-directory "~/.emacs.d/site-lisp/wanderlust/etc/icons")

I noticed that the warning about wl-icon-directory occured right after
loaded wl-send-html-messages.el -- maybe there is something more in
this file that does than just the functions for sending html messages?
that doesn't seem to be the problem -- commented out the load-library line that loads this file, and the problem persists. 
And AFAIK you don't need a newer version of APEL, SEMI, and FLIM but
using a local install works, too.

I don't really know where to get them so won't bother with that for now.

I have checkout out the repositories inside my .emacs.d directory and
can happily use WL at work under Windows by simply copying the entire
.emacs.d folder.
well, seems a bit mysterious then -- I will figure it out when I'm less busy! it's enough that wl works, for now at least. 

thanks again,
