Less than 30 mails, since it's unusable at all, I have to move mails into BSD fs again. -- Regards, Yue Wu Key Laboratory of Modern Chinese Medicines Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine China Pharmaceutical University No.24, Tongjia Xiang Street, Nanjing 210009, China

Long time to wait for mutt openning a mbox
Hi list, I've moved my .mutt to a fat32 filesystem, and ln -s it into my user dir, > mv ~/.mutt /media/win_d && ln -s /media/win_d/.mutt ~/ after I run mutt, I find that mutt waits a very long time for reading a mbox: Reading /home/user/.mutt/mails/mbox... then prompt: Lock count exceeded, remove lock for /home/user/.mutt/mails/mbox? ([yes]/no): What's wrong? how to get rid of it? I want to move mails to fat32 filesystem for the reason of reading mails in windows. -- Regards, Yue Wu Key Laboratory of Modern Chinese Medicines Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine China Pharmaceutical University No.24, Tongjia Xiang Street, Nanjing 210009, China
