I ran in to a nasty conflict yesterday between mush updating a mailbox and the mailer daemon delivering new mail. Mush was in the middle of the update when the new mail arrived, and mush simply overwrote the mailbox - the new mail was completely lost. This is on an ULTRIX/RISC v4.3 system. Clearly, I have misconfigured Mush. What kind of locking should I set it up to have? Thanks! -- Jay Vassos-Libove libove@alf.dec.com Digital Equipment Corporation decwrl!alf.dec.com!libove Atlanta Customer Support Center Opinions? They're mine, mine, all mine!
