That's not a large mbox. A large mbox is 2GB, especially on a system where the OS is not configured to support "large files", and 2GB is the largest file size it can handle. Oh, and the machine has only 2GB of RAM. > Can you tell me how I can handle such > a file direct in shell access or downloading and uploading it? If you've got the necessary write access to the file, it doesn't matter if you edit the file in-place using tools like emacs or vim, or if you download the file to your local machine and edit it there with a similar program and then re-upload. Either way, you're going to need an editor that can handle lines of arbitrary length, and binary content. Relatively few editors handle either or both of those things correctly. -- Brad Knowles <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> LinkedIn Profile: <http://tinyurl.com/y8kpxu> ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
