System:   sun4 / sunos 4.1
Version:  elm 2.3 pl 11

I've got wnewmail in an X window run as the following:

	wnewmail +folder1 sandman +folder2 +folder3 +folder4

Every so often I'll get this:

	fseek(): Interrupted system call

From this point, I don't get notices that mail has come in to my
folders or my main mailbox (sandman) so I'll kill the window and
restart.  I've got elm running in an x window which is up most of the
day and the problem seems to be when I restart elm though, I'm not
100% sure that this is the only cause.

It's strange because, I don't get problems when I update the mail box,
only when I exit and restart elm.  

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Dominick
