This is a known bug, although last i heard the cause was still a bit
of a mystery. Locally, I run upas/fs -n in my termrc, and then open
mailboxes I want explicitly down the road (since, from my 9vx
terminal, they're all IMAP for me at this point, this isn't a problem
for me; YMMV).
Well, that might work for me in time since my real email is all on IMAP
too, but while I'm getting my feet wet, I'm still doing all my real work
in OS X :)
There was some discussion a while ago about using replica with
9vx. I've seen the same stuff you're describing. Russ posted a link to
a Plan 9 distribution tailored to 9vx for use with update; it was
different from both the stock ISO and the file system included with
the 9vx package. I'm using that (and 9vx from the vx32 source).
Yeah, I'm also using the tarball Russ linked from the list archive link
I posted.
My OS X and Plan 9 user names match, but I don't think that matters
much. Having extracted a Plan 9 root into /opt/9vx, I run 9vx as
/Users/a/bin/9vx.OSX -u a -r /opt/9vx
and things work more or less as expected.
Now that I'm starting upas/fs < /dev/null, things seem relatively
normal here too. I'll worry about the replica issues later I think.
Cheers,
Gary
