Speaking of questions:
I just mv'ed a bunch of directories from a smaller to a larger hard drive,
including /home, /var, opt1, and /usr.
This worked, surprisingly enuf.
However, mutt complains that my mailbox is read only when I try to delete
mail. I can edit my /var/spool/mail/user mailbox with vi, and fetchmail is
working fine, so sendmail is writing to this mail box.
Here are the permissions:
-rw-r----- 1 jlh root 866172 Nov 30 20:59 /var/spool/mail/jlh
mutt has the following permissions:
-r-xr-xr-x 1 root root 404944 Feb 17 2000 /usr/bin/mutt
Suggestions welcome.
Joel
