It probably is, but mutt probably can't read or lock it. Try cp -p /var/mail/sean /tmp/sean mutt -f /tmp/sean and see what you get. If it works, then you have a locking problem. % % I don't get it, since I can cat this file, % and it has what looks like normal mail in % it. Please run ls -lFda /var/mail `which mutt` `which mutt_dotlock` mutt -v and post the results. I bet that mutt and/or mutt_dotlock have not been installed with SGID permissions and that /var/mail is writable only by root and the mail group. % % This is on FreeBSD 4.4, if it makes any % difference.
