It's interesting that your surmise was correct on the pentium but not on
the athalon. However, on both the mailbox was very small. Also, as a
remedy I tried pointing my mailbox at another another file and I'm still
rejecting mail. Here is an ls -l of the directory.

chalcogenide/var/spool/mail>ls -l
total 2
drwxrwxrwt    2 root     mail         1024 Oct 27 17:47 ./
drwxr-xr-x   11 root     root         1024 Jun  4 08:57 ../
lrwxrwxrwx    1 edwardsa root           32 Oct 25 16:58 edwardsa ->
/home/edwardsa/edwardsa/edwardsa

Silly and still perplexed.
