Yes, last night all the massages I had left in /var/mail/hendrik vanished *again*. Just like the night before. Of course, by the time I got to look at my mail, a few new ones had arrived.
I'm starting to think it's not just a fluke. >From the archive on lists.debian.org (since this message, which I hadn't even >*read* wasn't in my /var/mail/hendrik this morning) Almut Behrens <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > That other problem you mentioned in your original post makes me think > there might be a problem with the filesystem/harddisk -- in which case > those files could be lost forever, unless you have a recent backup... > Have you run a filesystem check? Any other files missing? No other files missing. File system check reports that the file system is clean, immediately, without apparently actually checking the partition.
