Are you using gkrellm 2.2.10 yet? I'm just snapping to the chance that this might be a problem with a malformed mime content package in your mbox. I got a patch that's in 2.2.10 for this problem. It seems there are some mail programs that don't properly close their mbox multi-parts and gkrellm < 2.2.10 will scan to the end of the mbox looking for the close and thus miss emails. Look in your ~/mail/mbox file for something like this: Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="XYZ" ... --XYZ ... --XYZ-- Where "XYZ" (the separator) can be just about anything and will be longer, but it should match. If you don't have a closing --XYZ-- that matches a boundary= specification, then gkrellm isn't finding the close. I hope this is your problem and not a new bug, but let me know. If it is the problem, upgrading to 2.2.10 should fix it.
