What were you trying to do?
Slurp new mail off of the po server.
What's wrong:
I went over quota when writing the twiddle-file. To fix,
please run `fs setquota...' :-)
Seriously, this is the problem:
/mit/yandros/.Private/mail/po:yandros~
this file contained the two messages that I'd pulled off of the po.
They didn't get removed from the po. They didn't get added to my
rmail file.
Unfortunately, a typo caused me to remove the file.
What should have happened:
Normally the messages would have been appended to my rmail
inbox instead of placed in the file po:yandros~. (I do tend to go
over quota this way often, and I've never seen this happen before...)
