So I had a look through, and I can confirm only *one* .msg file mentions receiving an email today, when infact I sent two. (one when I was logged off, and one when I was logged on).

root@alterant:/opt/sbbs/data/msgs# ls -alt 0001.*

Still seems to me that it is not posting a message when I am logged off?
