Hello all, firstly let me mention that I'm pretty stoked about using
Plan 9. I've been using it for about a week now, and things are coming
along well.

I'm having a bit of an issue, and it may entirely stem from my lack of
familiarity on the system, so I apologize in advance if this turns out
to be a silly problem:

When I throw

upas/fs -f /imaps/imap.gmail.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]

into my profile, (after the plumber, before I start rio; as per the
suggestion regarding mail on the wiki), I get a ludicrous amount of
errors after a while akin to this:

download 1768: i/o error: i/o on hungup channel
download 1769: i/o error: i/o on hungup channel
download 1770: i/o error: i/o on hungup channel
download 1771: i/o error: i/o on hungup channel

Et cetera. I did have copious amounts of mail in this box, somewhere
in the neighborhood of 3500. When I first ran this procedure, it
worked pretty well, albeit it slowly (3500 is a lot of messages to go
through). I got some similar messages, but I was able to access my
mail, and my machine seemed to run just fine. I used gmail's web
interface to clean out about 2000 of those mails, and rebooted the
system. Now, with these errors, the system grinds to a halt and there
is no responsiveness to speak of.

If any of you folks have any constructive suggestions, I certainly
appreciate the input. I perused various manpages and tried to dig
through the archives here, but haven't seen a problem quite like mine.

Thanks in advance,
Sid
