Here's a description of the problem:

Mail.app finds no incoming messages.  Test messages sent to my  
address generate error messages such as:

"Error 1: Can't append to mailfile in /usr/spool/mail"
(this file is empty)

and

"can't write to .deadletter"

Any help or suggestions are appreciated.  Don't mail responses,  
post or mail to cowboy@trans.csuohio.edu
