Where can I find information on this? I just grepped through the entire
manual for "lock", and I didn't find anything on this.
[bmerh56e-msoulier-msoulier]$ cd /var
[bmerh56e-msoulier-var]$ ll -d mail
drwxrwxr-x 2 bin mail 1024 Jul 5 14:32 mail/
Ok, the directory is writable by mail...
So, what's a "mutt_dotlock"?
