One of my users sent me the attached bounce (note: I've made some purely cosmetic changes to the bounce message, to remove the user's e-mail address and change FQDNs so that the server doesn't start getting spammed as a result of this posting -- but the content of the bounce has not been materially changed). It does not make sense to me ... the spool file no longer exists, but I cannot conceive of a reason why it would have two hard links (per the bounce message). None of the other spool files have multiple hard links. Is this a Postfix error? A known bug? An unknown bug?

I am running Postfix v2.0.18 on FreeBSD v7.0. Any help/pointers greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Vince
