Yep, I just compiled mutt on 21 April. But since that day until 2 days ago, nothing has happened. It was after I used spambouncec, then the problem arise. That is why at the first place I suspect that SB is the cause. I have a directory call 'mail' in my home, its for my mailing list. For the private mail, its always keep in the /var/spool/mail/sutrisno
Thanks for explaining to me how does the lock mechanism work, its a good piece of information cheers.... -- Willy [ http://web.singnet.com.sg/~sutrisno ] Linux User #225035 - http://counter.li.org
