>Organization:
Univ. Bonn, Germany
>Environment:
does'nt matter
>Description:
pine writes out mailboxes in 512 byte chunks (using cclient)
>How-To-Repeat:
On an NFS mounted home go to a 2MB message and type (S)ave
Then walk over to your file server and listen how your disks go wild!

>Fix:
This is the fix for cclient (I'll send another PR for pine)

of time to find that out...
