Strace shows a lot of this: read(3, "/home/user/Mail/debian-user-"..., 880) = 880 lseek(3, 23140497, SEEK_SET) = 23140497 read(3, "/home/user/Mail/debian-user-"..., 892) = 892 lseek(3, 24197849, SEEK_SET) = 24197849 read(3, "/home/user/Mail/debian-user-"..., 991) = 991 lseek(3, 13631488, SEEK_SET) = 13631488 read(3, "/home/user/Mail/debian-user-"..., 728) = 728 lseek(3, 13084906, SEEK_SET) = 13084906 read(3, "/home/user/Mail/debian-user-"..., 871) = 871 lseek(3, 6084452, SEEK_SET) = 6084452 read(3, "/home/user/Mail/debian-user-"..., 1012) = 1012 lseek(3, 27135458, SEEK_SET) = 27135458 read(3, "/home/user/Mail/debian-user-"..., 1046) = 1046 lseek(3, 9590096, SEEK_SET) = 9590096 read(3, "/home/user/Mail/debian-user-"..., 848) = 848 lseek(3, 15282663, SEEK_SET) = 15282663 With 30000 emails in one mailbox this lasts a bit. :-) Dirk -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
