While attempting to delete old messages from inbox...an access mailbox
violation error is flashed accross the screen.  After I exit pine and
execute the program again, I find that the amount of messages I intended
to delete duplicate themselve...so of like critters...has anybody
encounter this problem.  This has been an intermittent problem, hard to 
trace.  We have two servers running linux.  Our mail server takes care 
of all inbox/incomming mail...our second server allows users to log in 
and access their nfs'ed mailbox...any ideas...Thanks.

That's a likely cause of problems.  I'm not sure about this specific one
offhand, but I would strongly suggest using IMAP rather that NFS to access
remote mailboxes, especially INBOX!
