I've just tried upgrading mariadb again while watching it, and got similar results. I did notice that an error notice came up about being unable to store a message received via POP3, which is my main incoming source. I can't quote exactly because the notice disappeared too soon. Back to 10.3.16 for now. -- Regards, Peter.
