ghost email after reboot ???
I have a server, upgraded from potato to woody; still running 2.2.20 . .
.
Oddly enough, every time I reboot, root receives eight (8) emails from
nearly one year ago -- long, long ago deleted. Yes, the exact same mail
every time I reboot. Since this is a server, I pickup that mail
remotely and always delete it immediately. exim is set to forward
root's email to my account. This recurring email is more than a year
old and no subsequently received and deleted emails appear like this.
I've checked /root/mail/ -- for some reason, root doesn't use mbox --
nothing there now. Also, it is not in my ~/mbox.
I've checked /var/mail -- not even a root entry. /var/mail/mds is
empty.
Not an earth shattering problem; but, where is it hiding now? Next time
I reboot, I know that it will reappear; but, how can I delete it
forever, right now?
What do you think?
