Ugh. I believe the code to initialize/read the databases is at fault. I'm looking forward to when it finally works. It's also quite restrictive on the format of the bulletins, I often have to turn on debugging to find out what the problem with the new one is. We keep lockfiles in another directory on the same partition currently, if yours "suddenly dissapear" I take it that it uses hardlinks for the lockfiles and elects not to use lockfiles at all when it can't do hardlinks (across partitions). > > On Tue, 8 Apr 1997, Nate Williams wrote: > > > > Does anyone know of an alternative pop3 server than qpopper?
