Hi All,

I have a server running courier 0.42.0 (RH 7.3, RPM installation). This
morning, I noticed these log entries (repeated many times):

Jul 30 23:43:02 cheetah courierd: Invalid number of links for
/var/spool/courier/msgq/105943/C53386.1059433434
Jul 30 23:43:02 cheetah courierd: Cannot read
/var/spool/courier/msgq/105943/C53386.1059433434
Jul 30 23:43:02 cheetah courierd: Invalid argument
Jul 30 23:43:02 cheetah courierd: Invalid number of links for
/var/spool/courier/msgq/105943/C53386.1059433495
Jul 30 23:43:02 cheetah courierd: Cannot read
/var/spool/courier/msgq/105943/C53386.1059433495
Jul 30 23:43:02 cheetah courierd: Invalid argument

I checked, and indeed the two files mentioned had the same inode number
(53386), hard linked to msgs/86/C53386. The two timestamps appear to
be almost 1 minute apart - is that significant?

I removed one of the links from msgq/105943, and the message was delivered
successfully, though delayed by almost two days.

How did this happen? What can/should I do to prevent this from happening
in the future?

TIA,

Binand
