Re: error messages

I don't know about the speller issue, but I ought to be able to help you 
with the "Folder vulnerable" issue.

This message occurs when accessing the traditional UNIX mail spool file. 
I assume that this is what you are using for your mail.

First, please verify that /var/mail exists as a directory and that
/var/mail/holtzm exists as your INBOX.

Assuming that is OK, is there a /var/mail/holtzm.lock?  If there is one 
and it was not created within the past 5 minutes, then delete it.

Please let me know if this resolves your issue.
