Package: courier
Version: squeeze
Severity: important

Hello Maintainer,

For arround 2 hours I had a weird problem with mutt which want load  the
include file for "muttmailboxes".  Because the file contain 416  folders
I have comented out anything and started loading the file to see,  where
it hangs.

Arround in the middle of the file I found  a  mailfolder  where  in  the
/tmp/ subdirectory was a "courier.lock" file laying arround for 02:56...

Removeing this file on the courier servers deblocked the courier and  it
continue as there was nothing happen...

So, since I have more then 4000 folders in my /Maildir/ this bug is very
annoying and should be solved as fast as possibel, becuase I know, I  am
am not the only one with huge Maildirs.

Courier should detect stale  "courier.lock"  files  laying  arround  and
remove them.

Thanks, Greetings and nice Day/Evening
