Sendmail bogus queue file.... !!?? Date: Sat, 14 Dec 1996 09:16:52 GMT Organization: CRI Systems Lines: 24 Message-ID: <32b26f60.219448266@news.mindlink.net> Reply-To: ddunlop@redpoint.com NNTP-Posting-Host: line016.nwm.mindlink.net X-Newsreader: Forte Free Agent 1.1/32.230 Xref: euryale.cc.adfa.oz.au comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc:32575 My FreeBSD 2.1 system just started giving errors when trying to process incoming mail from my UUCP connection. The log file reports the following: Dec 14 00:13:06 redpoint sendmail[199]: AAA00197: bogus queue file, uid=66, mode=100600 Dec 14 00:13:06 redpoint sendmail[199]: Losing qfAAA00197: bogus file uid in mqueue Internal mail (ie from one local user to another local user) seems to work fine but anything received via uucp fails. This was working fine until earlier today. The only thing I am aware of that changed was the ISP I connect to when I pick up my mail, although the mail is still serviced from the same machine (just that the previous ISP is no longer providing dial-up). Can anyone explain to me just what the above errors mean and, hopefully, how to fix it? Many thanks, Don
