Adding that by hand converts it into a read mail, apparently forever. What can be made of that? The directory currently has: gene@coyote:~/Mail/emc/cur$ ls -l |wc -l 58868 files in it. But another even bigger directory: gene@coyote:~/Mail/emc/cur$ ls -l ../../coco/cur|wc -l 107784 has no such problems now for several years. It did have a similar problem when it was about that size back when it was the old kde version. > > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > >- To unsubscribe, e-mail: > > trinity-users-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx For additional > > commands, e-mail: trinity-users-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Read > > list messages on the web archive: > > http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/ Please remember not to > > top-post: > > http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/mailing_lists/#top-posting > > Cheers, Gene Heskett Cheers, Gene Heskett -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: trinity-users-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx For additional commands, e-mail: trinity-users-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Read list messages on the web archive: http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/ Please remember not to top-post: http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/mailing_lists/#top-posting
