Summary: continuous error nameing /var/mail/root, not in kmails
kmailrc
Product: kmail
Version: 1.9.7
Platform: unspecified
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs kde org
ReportedBy: gene.heskett verizon net
Version: 1.9.7 (using KDE 3.5.7-22.fc7 Fedora, Fedora release 7 (Moonshine))
Compiler: Target: i386-redhat-linux
OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.22.4-65.fc7
I can turn off all interval checking and I still get, at about 2 minute intervals, two must click past them, dialog boxes reporting it cannot access /var/mail/root. /var/mail/root is not in any account, nor is it contained in kmailrc.
This renders kmail virtually worthless since it cannot do anything else while these advisories are on screen.
All rx accounts are configured as local accounts in mailfile format because fetchmail, spamc and procmail delivers it all to /var/spool/mail/gene, running as the user gene, from several external accounts. Kmail can receive roots email from /var/spool/mail/root, also a mailfile.
Please help, this is very annoying and I need it working on the road starting tomorrow. I have a daughter dying of cancer about 1000 miles west of here, the 2nd & last of my girls. I'd like to get there in time to say goodbye.
Thanks, Gene
