BTW, this sounds very similar to a problem that Peter Wemm was having when he had a news filesystem made with 4K blocks. I seem to recall that he changed the filesystem to 8K blocks and the problem went away. It appears that there is a bug in the FFS block allocation/free code that is tickled by 4K blocks. Are any of your filesystems built with a 4K blocksize? BTW, your UUCP software re-writes of the email headers into bang-path format is very annoying. -DG David Greenman Core-team/Principal Architect, The FreeBSD Project
