I neglected to mention that I'd already tried that... # dd if=inqarts.seen of=inqarts.seen.new bs=1 count=1420 1420+0 records in 1420+0 records out # chmod 600 inqarts.seen.new # mv inqarts.seen inqarts.seen.old && mv inqarts.seen.new inqarts.seen # ll -t inqarts.* -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 1420 Mar 28 14:11 inqarts.seen -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 10052 Mar 28 11:37 inqarts.seen.old -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 320 Feb 21 10:53 inqarts.sub It still logged the same error afterwards. I guess I'll have to try something more drastic now. -- -Gary Mills- -Unix Support- -U of M Academic Computing and Networking- ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/ Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/twiki List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
