The DM on tuesday

(1 / 1)


Kim's system disk was corrupted sometime between last thursday and last night.
The corruption prevented it from booting, (don't ask me, I don't know where the
files went). Anyway, I had to restore the disk again from the last full backup
and apply the daily incrementals. This produces a side effect where the "new
mail count" in most people's account gets messed up. MAIL may say you have new
mail when you really don't or it'll NOT say you have new mail when you really
do. In either case you'll want to fix it. To do this enter MAIL and type
READ/NEW. Ignore the message about no new messages if you get it and exit mail
with an EXIT or control-z.
