You have built XFaces without XPM, SHAPE and XFace header support. You
need to set the following resources:
XFaces.imageFormats: xbm
XFaces.imageSearch: \
beforeImage\n\
resource\n\
facedb\n\
afterImage
The defaults are:
XFaces.imageFormats: xpm-shape:xpm:xbm-shape:xbm
Which specifies that the following image types are are allowd and the
order that they are to be checked:
xpm-shape - Shaped XPM images.
xpm - XPM images.
xbm-shaped - Shaped XBM images.
xbm - XBM images.
And:
XFaces.imageSearch: \
beforeImage\n\
resource\n\
facedb\n\
x-face\n\
afterImage
Which specifies the order and types of searches that are used to locate
an image to display.
beforeImage - regular expression search of headers.
resource - lookup user/host name in X resource database.
facedb - Disk based "faces" search.
x-face - look for X-Face header.
afterImage - regular expression search of headers.

Did you install a nomail.xbm file in one of the directories on your
imagePath? (In your case: /usr/global/lib/pixmaps) XFaces currently
does not contain a XBM nomail image. Does anyone have one to contribute?
