It may be that something is wrong with your mutt_dotlock program. Did you configure --with-mailpath=/var/mail? What are the permissions of /var/mail? Is your mutt_dotlock setgid? Also you may want to check for a stale lockfile in the /var/mail directory. -- Kevin J. McCarthy GPG Fingerprint: 8975 A9B3 3AA3 7910 385C 5308 ADEF 7684 8031 6BDA
