What were you trying to do?
I was trying to send/read email using Pine from an Athena terminal.
What's wrong:
In the middle of looking at my Inbox, Pine quit unexpectedly. When I was
able to log back in, all of the email I had received that day (Friday,
April 19)
was gone. In its place I had an empty message from no recipient.
The night before I was using Pine from home, and it also quit unexpectedly
but in that case I didn't lose any email messages. although i could not
log into Athena for more than 30 min.
What should have happened:
I understand that programs and systems crash, but I shouldn't be
losing email messages from my Inbox. As far as I can tell, I didn't lose
any other information or files from my Athena account.
