I dug a little deeper into /etc/login.conf and set the userid that pine barfed on to 'root' for limits. Pine will now open the file/folder in question without barfing. It has ~6000 messages (-questions since 2/1/98) and is approaching 22 meg. I'm assuming it's not the best way to determine the memory consumption of a given process/program, but according to TOP, pine was using about ~30 meg while the file/folder in question was 'open'. As for the recommendations to find a better mail reader, I've been using pine for about 2 years. I'm very comfortable with the 'user interface' and like the fact that it does not *require* X windows. I do wish Pine handled pgp a little better than it currently does. I'll look into some of the other mail programs. Thanks again. - -burton- - --------------- Burton Sampley bsampley@best.com or bsampley@haywire.csuhayward.edu PGP key available at http://www.best.com/~bsampley/pgp.html -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.2 iQCVAwUBNTv1qHt2O8KJtMdBAQEdGQP7BRFu7px3+pCaUii2pXmtCJF6yi98aRyc 0uZJeIOr3sSxE77pzDrjcKtbABYUp/qSg0CfFd4f3JAhaudtn7LYMpzOi9+a+4YS qOAroFoAlC9TKorZKksYGsi1RbqRfTNkAeWmIEOCjc4tUK6nLP6SQ90qxmytuROx YasmnrnizhY= =kKtR -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
