I have received this error several times and am not too sure what it is
caused by. In fact I am pretty baffled. We have a cluster of 4 sparcstations
and a sparcserver and the /var/spool/mail directory resides on the server
with all of the stations NFS mounting it. I see no appearant NFS problems.
There is a very high correlation between this error and complaints that
someone didn't get some mail (not too surprising eh?!).

Any tips/clues/assistance will be greatly appreciated,
