Hi Jon,

Thanks for the reply, the user is the same and I can actually run 
archive mail with cron on accounts that have 3 or less mailboxes, when I 
run the cronjob on boxes of 4 or more I get the error, sometimes, but 
not always.

If I run the job from the command line it works perfectly. Seems like 
Archivemail is tripping over itself when running multiple boxes or some 
kind of line buffer error.

Any idea on how to increase line buffer size?

Thanks

Tim
