Actually your machine was not idle. You were running zwgc. When the PO
server sent you that you had new mail, your zwgc ran
/usr/athena/zmailnotify to tell you what the mail was. (You uncommented
those lines in your file.) This in turn tried to contact the PO server
to get the header of the mail message. The error that you got though was
that your tickets had expired. (mh has a poor error message regarding
this). Therefore, couting the the errors you received about 19 pieces of
mail after your tickets expired.
