I just checked my running processes and had a couple of extra instances
of netscape running!!  I killed them off and the error messages went
away.

We have been having some intermittant outages of our RR E-Mail servers
recently due to a big Thunderstorm about 2 weeks ago.  Whenever the
servers went down, any attempt to send/receive mail would cause NS Mail
to lock-up.  When I exited NS/Communicator in this state, the next time
it was opened up,  I would get the usual message about the presence of a
"lock" file.  I had been just removing the lock and going on.  It never
occurred to me that there was an instance of NS still running :(

Sorry for the "spam"....

Cheers,
