If that doesn't work, you're running an old version and should upgrade.

You should be able to jump to 4.0.3. The only concern is if you
are using 2.x, compiled it with NO_STATUS defined, and have users
who keep mail on the server. If that's the case (and it's a fairly
unusual one) there are some steps you need to take to keep users
from downloading old mail again.

You can read the Administrator's Guide online at

don't have as much in them.
