I installed kmail on my test box, but as of this JR> writing ~/Mail dir has only few zero length files. i am doing tests on 3 different testsetups now. so far i am not able to reproduce the error :( all boxes are running with fedora-core2 and the same custom kernel (like on the box which breaks once a day). lets see what happens. regards, alex - Linux-crypto: cryptography in and on the Linux system Archive: http://mail.nl.linux.org/linux-crypto/
