The procmail man page suggests this is an acceptable
place to ask this question. So, here goes ...
I get the following messages on all of my terminal
windows, every hour. I'd like to fix whatever is
wrong, or at least make this message stop:
Message from syslogd(_at_)tiger at Wed Oct 28 13:33:21 1998 ...
tiger procmail[826]: Couldn't rename bogus "/var/spool/mail/root" into
"/var/spool/mail/BOGUS.x6m1"
Message from syslogd(_at_)tiger at Wed Oct 28 13:33:23 1998 ...
tiger procmail[828]: Couldn't rename bogus "/var/spool/mail/root" into
"/var/spool/mail/BOGUS.x6m1"
Message from syslogd(_at_)tiger at Wed Oct 28 13:33:25 1998 ...
tiger procmail[830]: Couldn't rename bogus "/var/spool/mail/root" into
"/var/spool/mail/BOGUS.x6m1"
I haven't been able to figure out why I'm getting this
message. Another machine has the much the same configuration
and doesn't get it. They both nfs mount /var/spool/mail/root
from a third machine on which neither has root access.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
