I'm on squish and i can remember golded telling me a squish "area is locked
please wait" then stay in an endless waiting counter.

I don't know the exact golded process flow. I know that golded does temporary
local backup writes of the open message for edit. The unsaved message is
placed in the file golded.msg. If golded crashes with a 10k unsaved message it
would call out "unfinished mail found" when you create a new message and the
10k-x text of the unsaved message is still there.

That's why i think the real write access time to the msgbase is very short. On
the other hand the question is what the tosser would do on a locked msgarea.
Wait for access? Skip? Where is the skipped mail? Still in the pkt? In some
temp spools? In the badmail area?

Regards

Kai
