Hi,
I've been using Mozilla 0.9.1 as my primary mail and news
client at home since shortly after its release couple of
weeks ago. I think it's a great improvement and so far I am
quite happy with it.
But, today, I somehow bumped into a serious problem with my
mails. When Mozilla tries to download my new messages from
the POP server, it says that it's downloading 1 of 11
messages. But shortly after that, a message pops up saying
"Unable to write the e-mail to the mailbox. Make sure the
file system allows you write privileges, and you have enough
disk space to copy the mailbox." And then I see a message
with some strange characters in its subject and body. I
don't know if the problem has anything to do with that
particular message, but in the past half an hour, it does
this everytime it checks new messages on the server and
brings up the same message, but not the rest of the new
messages.
I don't have any problem with three news accounts I
regularly use. I checked the write privileges of the folder
where inbox resides in and did not see any problem. I have
about 2 gigs of empty space on the drive on which my
application data is and about 30 gigs of space on the drive
on which Mozilla is installed. There are currently 172
messages in my mailbox and the size of the inbox file is
101,099 KB. Strangely enough, its size does not change when
I move half of the messages to another folder and compact
all folders.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks and regards,
Ahmet
