Where is the real movemail?
It's gone. Vanished into the ether without a trace.
Also missing from /usr/athena/bin: unlog, detach, get_message, and
possibly other stuff that hasn't been noticed yet.
Erik Nygren is working on a theory that the disappearances are caused
by some bug in 1.1.72, probably combined with Linux AFS. Anyway, this
looks like the makings of a _very serious_ problem. If anyone else
has noticed files disappearing from an ext2 filesystem, and especially
if you have some idea what's causing it or how to prevent it, let us
know...
