qpopper: What does -ERR maillock: /var/spool/pop/username.pop mean

[Nils Rennebarth <nils@ipe.uni-stuttgart.de>]

I receive these messages in my syslog when debugging is turned on, and the
user don't get their mail with pop-3, with the same error message.
Telnetting to pop-3 port gives the same message and the session is ended
after the USER and PASS commands.

I just newly installed qpopper on this machine. What could be wrong?

Nils

Plug-and-Play is really nice, unfortunately it only works 50% of the time.
To be specific the "Plug" almost always works.            --unknown source
