Looks like the time of your machine is wrong. Just to give you an idea of xbiff implementation (Mailbox.c): [...] /* * Now check for changes. If reset is set then we want to pretent that * there is no mail. If the mailbox is empty then we want to turn off * the flag. Otherwise if the mailbox has changed size then we want to * put the flag up, unless the mailbox has been read since the last * write. * * The cases are: * o forced reset by user DOWN * o no mailbox or empty (zero-sized) mailbox DOWN * o if read after most recent write DOWN * o same size as last time no change * o bigger than last time UP * o smaller than last time but non-zero UP * * The last two cases can be expressed as different from last * time and non-zero. */ -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

That would explain the behaviour. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Is there any chance that someone will look into this? Obviously, the problem might not be xbiff itself, but rather the way xbiff and the file system communicate with each other etc. Robert -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
