obviously someone abused the mail-client for ftp ;-)
imho a ftp server or webDav is much better for big file-uploads then pop3.


All the best

Warning madness

[A-NO-NE Music]

It just happened that a few people sent me large audio files at once. 
The partition I have PM db filled up quickly.  At this point, PM threw
"Not enough space" message.  The problem is this message gets in a
loop.  You can't exit PM at this point.

If I hit Cmd+Q between dismissing the warning box, PM shows "Quit
Anyway?" warning even though the status bar isn't indicating download is
in progress.  The "Quit Anyway?" dialog is sent right away by another
"Not enough space" warning.

I had to kill PM proc to shut it off.  Of course the indices needed to
be rebuilt at this point.  I was really glad the mail db wasn't corrupt, tho.
