Nope, the mailbox is empty.
/tmp has plenty of space:
mfs:37 87199 36 80188 0% /tmp
And /var/mail is:
drwxrwxr-x 2 bin mail 512 Jun 21 14:47 .
And it's not just my main mailbox, it's also $HOME/Mail/*
I just recompiled 2.5p2 from scratch. No joy. I'm using flock locking
not dot or fcntl.

I got this one going. I just hadn't had time to look at it. I'm in the
