>Description:
      In the mail.local manual page it says that the -B option turns off notification, turning off sending anything to the 512 upd port. But if mail.local is used with this option and the filesystem storing the mailboxes uses quotas, and the limit is reached, all the messages are deleted from the specific mailbox. 
>How-To-Repeat:
      Using quotas on  the filesystem storing the mail boxes, and using mail.local with -B option. (e.g: define(`LOCAL_MAILER_ARGS', `mail.local -lB') in sendmail.mc)
>Fix:
      Not using the -B option for mail.local.
