Whoopee!  Kmail upchucked and started throwing away mails this morning, or 
late last night, seem it can't deal with an inbox mail FILE over 2GiB.  So 
I stopped it, along with fetchmail and its customers, then moved the inbox 
to inbox-old, then copied that to /var/mail/gene and restarted kmail.  
About 6 hours later, I discovered that kmail was running its own session of 
spamassassin and that it would take nominally a week to read that 2049 
megabyte file at that rate.

Eventually I was able to get to the filters menu and delete those filters 
which sped that up about 100x.

But then it goes all a-gaga when it tried to read the whole file in one 
piece, so stop it, empty the inbox, and split that mailfile into 1Gb 
pieces, 3 of them.

Renamed the old one, and moved the first xaa file to gene.  Started kmail, 
took about 45 minutes to import the first gig.

Wash, rinse, repeat with xab, then xac.  Try to delete dups, took 15 
minutes, did not.  So I went thru all folders & marked all mesgs as read.

Restarted my mail sucking scripts and mail is coming in at about 1/second 
after it passes the SA and clamav gauntlets.  Catchup time estimated at 
half an hour.

So, basically what I am asking is that if you have sent me a mail since the 
above posting by Jon Elson, please resend it.  And many many thanks for 
your patience.

Cheers, Gene
