john -- cannot -show cracked passwords ???

[Michael D Schleif <mds@helices.org>]

I am having problems with john.  Every morning, I get this message:

   Sending mail to jeff... John has cracked 1 passwords. If you want to
   see them, use john -show <passwordfile>. (See john(1) for details).

However, I cannot get john to show me:

   # sudo john -show /root/.john/john.tmp.9udtXe
   0 passwords cracked, 3 left


   # apt-show-versions john
   john/testing uptodate 1.6-23

   # sudo grep ^passfile /etc/john-mail.conf
   passfile=3D/root/.john/john.tmp

   # sudo ls -l /root/.john/
   total 4
   -rw-------    1 root     root         1476 Jan 12 01:00 john.tmp.9udtXe

What do you think?
