When I receive an image, for example:
[-- #1.2 788/60446 base64 --]
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="eReceipt.pdf"
Content-Type: application/pdf; name="eReceipt.pdf"
run MIME handler for this part? [no]/yes? yes
The image flashes on the
'"mail -f /var/spool/mail/russell works."
'How so? Have you configured *disable-dotlock* for this
instance, or have you removed the fishy file in the spool directory?'
I have done neither. Instead of running
mail
I run
mail -f
When I run I get:
mailx: Creating file (dot) lock for /var/spool/mail/russell . failed
mailx: Fishy! Is someone trying to "steal" foreign files?
mailx: Please check the mailbox file etc. manually, then retry
mailx: Unable to (dot) lock mailbox,

Don't take it so hard. I was just making a report. I don't
mind the errors.

I had a disk failure when I tried to run s-nail (my fault) but
it gave infinite errors instead of quitting after the first try:
EXT4-fs error (device sda4): ext4_journal_check_start:61: Detected
aborted journal
EXT4-fs (sda4): Remounting filesystem read-only
It just scrolls through to the end.

Thanks. My local man page is different. This page provides

Quoth unser Sehr geehrter Herr Steffen Nurpmeso, 'ctime() uses
asctime() and asctime() is defined by the standard and does perform

I just read asctime's man page and looked at time.h. When
they describe day-of-month they use them unpadded and mention nothing

I don't understand Mr Nurpmeso's reply.
I discovered that s-mailx thinks that From lines with
single-digit day-of-month don't conform to rfc4155. (I tested
hundreds of messages.) rfc4155 cites ctime as the authority for the
format of date & time. ctime's man page says that it
I get this message:
MBOX mailbox contains non-conforming From_ line(s)!
Message boundaries may have been falsely detected!
Setting variable *mbox-rfc4155* and reopen should improve the result.
If so, make changes permanent: "copy * SOME-FILE". Then unset
