To my surprise all of the /var/mail/maillog* files were empty (of length zero). And so was the latest /var/log/mesages ... The partition where /var resides is only 81% full... Ideas? Thanks! -mi P.S. The person from Ports team in charge of tiff-3.4 port integration, please, contact me again. It is your message I lost. Sorry. -- "Windows for dummies"
