What were you trying to do?
I had just rmm'd tons of stuff. I wanted to repack my inbox and
then get rid of all the #* files.
What's wrong:
(~) Meow? folder -pack
folder: unable to rename 117 to 78: No such file or directory

(I started at the end of a "scan". ) I'm not sure if I lost anything in
this or not.
What should have happened:
It should have packed my folder. Ie, gotten rid of holes in the
numbering sequence.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
man folder
