FreeBSD 6.1 I am using fetchmail to collect my mail and store it on my server. I currently have three other PC's connect on this LAN. I have Qpopper installed to allow me to access the mail on one of the other PC's if I want.
Fetchmail has been gathering mail from SPAMCOP.net for me for several months without incident. I have a user named spamcop that fetchmail feeds the mail from SPAMCOP into. Something has happened to that folder. Qpopper will no longer access it. This is the log entries in the /var/log/messages file: May 19 18:54:48 seibercom qpopper[98226]: spamcop at boss (192.168.0.4): -ERR POP EOF or I/O Error May 19 18:54:48 seibercom qpopper[98226]: Stats: spamcop 0 0 128 36944163 boss 192.168.0.4 May 19 18:54:54 seibercom qpopper[98226]: I/O error flushing output to client spamcop at boss [192.168.0.4]: Operation not permitted (1) May 19 18:59:31 seibercom qpopper[298]: spamcop at boss (192.168.0.4): -ERR POP EOF or I/O Error May 19 18:59:31 seibercom qpopper[298]: Stats: spamcop 0 0 129 36950086 boss 192.168.0.4 May 19 18:59:37 seibercom qpopper[298]: I/O error flushing output to client spamcop at boss [192.168.0.4]: Operation not perm itted (1) Boss is the name of one of my other PC's. I used pico to check out the spamcop file, and it came up with a message stating: File Has Long Line. I do not know what that means. I tried copying the file to a new name, clearing out the old file and copying the contents back, but Qpopper will still not access it. I have temporarily moved the contents to a new file and cleaned out the original. Qpopper is again accessing the file. What could be wrong with the file, and is there anyway that I can fix it. There is quite a bit of mail in it and I would rather not lose it. I have been reading it via the console, but that is not what I want to do.
