Hi, I seem to have lost write access to my folders (has been fine up to now).

Symptom 1: I'm using mozilla and have the folders on a fat32 partition so that I can access them running linux (mdk10) or xp. First I could download mail, but clug mail rule couldn't be processed and I get "Unable to write the eamil to the mailbox. Make sure the file system allows you write privileges, and you have enough disk space to copy the mailbox". I could also send a test email but not put a copy in the sent folder.

Symptom 2: Testing the ability to save a writer file to the same partition, or same folder, I get "error saving the document test.sxw: /home/roger/documents/d drive/test.sxw does not exist".

Looking in Konqueror the permissions for all the folders on the partition are shown as rwxrwxrwx, which I thought would be OK? (I don't know the command to show this). So it seems the permissions themselves are good, something else is going on.

I'm not out of disk space (it's win_d):

Any ideas?  Gonna have to reluctantly reboot to xp in the mean time  :-(
