It's supposed to, yes.
My bad. I had an old version on my old desktop; dmail has no --version
argument but I'm guessing it's from 2006 or earlier.
replicating error by deliberately filling up a Linux ext3 partition:
old version:
Error updating mix index file
message delivery failed to /boot/foobar/mail/xxx
invalid mailbox name foobar+mail/xxx
delivered to /var/spool/mail/foobar
- leaves mailbox broken
subsequent attempts:
Oversize mix status record
Can't open append mailbox: Success
message delivery failed to /boot/foobar/mail/xxx
new (2007) version:
Error flushing mix index file
Error in mix status sequence record, i=4a53bce4, seq=4a53bce5
Reclaimed 22789 bytes of expunged space
message delivery failed to /boot/foobar/mail/xxx
invalid mailbox name foobar+mail/xxx
delivered to /var/spool/mail/foobar
- leaves mailbox OK
