A user (scotty@athena) has requested through olc that his files (some
mail messages) be restored and he also requests some additional disk
space. Here is part of the converstation -- if you need to the rest,
it's still in olc.

ok, I believe the files vanished around last
Sunday, or perhaps earlier that week. They were under /Mail (from my login
Directory) and I think the only ones I cared about were under /Mail/inbox.
These were messages I had recieved via ``inc'', maybe I did something which
deleted them but I dont think so. If you give them back to me I will be over q
quota but I guess I could just print them out and delete before I get in
trouble. Also, I have started up a new /Mail/inbox file which ahs about 6
new messages and I am able to inc mail now.
I need about 1000 kilobytes more, at LEAST 500 kbytes. I won't waste it!
Thanks.

You don't happen to know what number the messages were, do you?
