Hi all, Two users on our system have recently had trouble reading their inbox, and it seems to be a result of their inbox getting corrupted.
In the most recent case, their Mailbox file (in /home/eric/Mailbox in this case), has the following as the first line:
cnw.igmg--
Here's a piece of the logs below... if you look for "eric", there's a successfully delivery, followed a bit later by a POP attempt by "eric" that returns that the Mailbox isn't in mbox format.
Any ideas?.josh
