   This shar file appears to be improperly packed. It complained about
   missing control character. Here is the record of the session:

$ sh checkmail.shar
shar: Extracting "checkmail" (1030 characters)
shar: 3 control characters may be missing from "checkmail"
shar: "checkmail" unpacked with wrong size!
shar: Extracting "cm_shar" (0 characters)
shar: Extracting "mail.icon" (1933 characters)
shar: Extracting "nomail.icon" (1933 characters)
shar: End of shell archive.

    Does anybody run into the same problem?
