I've moved the file /var/spool/mail/user to
~user/Mailbox and made a symbolic link back to /var/spool/mail/user, but it
doesn't seem to stay. It will say that I have new mail in /var/spool/mail/user,
and then when i go to view that mail via 'mail', it gives me this
message:
This text is part of the internal format of your
mail folder, and is not
a real message. It is created automatically by the mail system software. If deleted, important folder data will be lost, and it will be re-created with the data reset to initial values. I then quit out of mail, it saves it to mbox, and
then the link /var/spool/mail/user is gone.
This line is in my maillog:
Jan 25 13:36:52 damacles procmail[5961]: Renamed
bogus "/var/spool/mail/root" into "/var/spool/mail/BOGUS.root.VUJ"
Why is this happening, and why aren't my links
sticking, and what should i do?
Thanks,
Eric
