Troy -- ...and then Troy Heber said... % % Quick question. I just upgraded mutt from 1.2.5i to Mutt 1.3.25i Because of % the security change. Problem is that my main inbox (my spoolfile I belive) % is now giving me "Mailbox is read-only." when ever I try to do any ... % set spoolfile="/var/spool/mail/troyhebe"
1) Do other mailboxes have this problem? 2) Did you do the upgrade, or did you have root do it? I believe there was an option in 1.2 (at least) which let you install mutt with special permissions instead of using mutt_dotlock; as a normal user, though, you wouldn't be able to install your mutt that way (or the new mutt_dotlock, either). Take a look at the output of ls -lF /path/to/old/mutt* /path/to/new/mutt* and see which (at least *some* should) have special permissions like -rwxr-sr-x 1 bin mail 16995 Sep 8 06:56 mutt_dotlock* (note the 's' on the group permissions and the mail groupship). % set folder=~/tmail # where i keep my mailboxes % set mbox=+inbox % % The only thing I did was upgrade mutt versions. Am I missing something % stuipd? Not stupid, but common nonetheless. % % Thanks, HTH & HAND % % Troy :-D -- David T-G * It's easier to fight for one's principles (play) [EMAIL PROTECTED] * than to live up to them. -- fortune cookie (work) [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.justpickone.org/davidtg/ Shpx gur Pbzzhavpngvbaf Qrprapl Npg!
