Subject: Re: Problem with deleting messages from INBOX

We are having similar problems with our system, although we do have quotas
set up.  

We have a UnixWare 7 box. When those users who are over their quotas use
PC-Pine to connect via imapd, they are told that their mailbox is open by
another process. Their mailbox then becomes read-only and they cannot delete
any messages to get them back under their quota.  

There appears to be plenty of space on all filesystems. Is there a temporary
file that pine creates in the user's space when starting up, and if so is
there a way to place this file in a different location (i.e. on another file
system)?

Any suggestions??
Thanks!
