Hi, There have been a number of reports from people recently that doing a presort inc sometimes fails from within exmh. The same thing has happened to me several times. It seems to be something to do with certain mail files which cause the problem. I can do a manual inc from the command line, and this works though sometimes it pauses for a long time before incorporating.
I have looked at the log for exmh and this is what it says: BgAction Inc IncInner BackgroundPending Inc exmh-bg {Inc_Presort +MyIncTmp: {child killed: segmentation violation}} presort inc ... 1: How do I kill the scree blank timeout in text mode? 2: Re: Communicator Installation 3: SOLVED:Re: NFS problems, cannot mount-permission denied 4: WP 8.0 5: Re: WP 8.0 6: Re: xfstt 7: How are routine tasks run , if not from cron? 8: Re: How are routine tasks run , if not from cron? exmh-bg {FlistFindUnseen reset=0} FlistFindStart reset=0 active=0 Flist_Done 98 unread msgs in 5 folders exec {/usr/lib/mime/playaudio /usr/lib/exmh/drip.au} {Sound_Feedback: /usr/lib/mime/playaudio: /dev/audio: Permission denied} exec {/usr/lib/mime/playaudio /usr/lib/exmh/drip.au} {Sound_Feedback: /usr/lib/mime/playaudio: /dev/audio: Permission denied} exmh-bg {Flist_FindUnseen end {196752 microseconds per iteration}} BackgroundComplete Inc background actions complete So it seems to bomb out with a sementation violation, so that it doesn't incorporate beyond the 8th message. Maybe there's something wrong with the 9th email?
