I may be completely off track here (I am using mbox - you seem to be using maildir) but when this particular thing happened to me, it was the fault of postfix. There is a maximum mailbox size setting somewhere in /etc/postfix/main.cf. I have this mailbox_size_limit = 102400000 I had changed it to this number from the original value (51200000). It drove me nuts because my mailbox size went over 100mb at exactly the same time I had upgraded (or was it changed) my distro. :( ymmv, hth, Sharukh. -- Dr. Sharukh K R Pavri.
