[Pine-info] (no subject)

[Pierre Frenkiel]

I recently installed gnubiff, with which you call check mail remotely,
using imap or pop. It works perfectly, but now, when I open pine
to read new mail, I get after 1 or 2 minutes the following messages:
in pine:
     [MAIL FOLDER "INBOX" CLOSED DUE TO ACCESS ERROR]
and in the mail server log file:
     imapd[24913]: Killed (lost mailbox lock)

As pine can only use imap, I tried to configure gnubiff with pop, but
the problem remains.

So, pine hangs as soone as another program tries to check the presence of
mail, without reading it.

Has anybody a workaround?
