This file is created by makecat; I haven't touched it.

The process has been:

Remove previous version of IC 4.6
Install 4.8.1 using rpm on redhat 7.0 server.
Run makecat and fill in the details in the similar way I have done using
minivend 3.x, 4.6 etc
Restart Interchange
Each catalogue then fails:' Please specify the MailOrderTo directive in the
configuration file.'

So I uninstalled the rpm
Installed via tarball
Installation looked very happy, no errors:

So I did this again:
Run makecat
Create a store in the similar way I have done using minivend 3.x, 4.6 etc
Restart Interchange
Again, each catalogue fails: 'Please specify the MailOrderTo directive in
the configuration file.'

I have seen the same problem report on the mail list several times but no
solution.
Could this be a bug?

I will try adding all CPAN modules though I was under the impression that
./configure would prompt if any where required?

All development is at a stand still until I can work out what the heck this
error is referring too.

Thanks for your interest in my plight
Simon
