      From: nospam.Chris.Hizny@f860.n218.z1.fidonet.org               PH> If you run 'mis poll killbusy' but close MIS down first before you do        PH> Then restart and see how you go.              Thanks! It turned out the central issue was my system rebooted in the middle       of a poll, leaving corrupt stuff in my echomail folders (determined this by       trying to unzip everything and a bunch of things would not unzip) which was       causing Mystic to soil the proverbial bed. As it crashed, it was leaving those       .bsy files behind. I cleaned out my echomail folders and now it seems to be       humming along. I am describing this here just in case someone else searches on       the problem in the future.              I will remember the killbusy method in the future; I was using a for loop to       find the files and rm them previously.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
