Subject: PC-Pine can't expunge

What does "Checkpoint file mismatch (12055 != 30043)"
these almost every time (but not every time) I try to
expunge messages from a folder.

I'm running PC-Pine 4.31 on a win2k machine.  Mail comes
into a Solaris machine, where I keep all my folders, address
book, etc. using IMAP.  I don't have the problem if I read
the mail using Pine 4.31 running on the Solaris machine.
The problem just started after the new year; I'm not aware
of making any changes to my setup, which was working fine
before.

I tried cleaning all messages out of, for example, my inbox,
but the problem still happens.

Sounds like bad file locking.

I don't think so, but your message got me to look and see
that I was running out of disk space on the server's INBOX
partition, and I think dealing with that has solved the
problem.  Thanks. Chris
