#530 Mailbox got deleted !
While I was trying to delete 3 checked messages in the
users mailbox, I wasn't very certain I clicked "Delete
Selected" button and since the IE globe wasn't spinning,
I clicked it again.
This time it did react and when it returned, the mailbox
was completely empty ! There was over 200Mb quite
important mail in that mailbox ;-(
I have no clue why this happened, but if it's any help to
you, I'm running sendmail 8.11.6-3.
Thanks for looking in to this ASAP, WebMin is the best
of it's kind.
Best regards (although I'm pretty angry :-/),
Chris.

Damn, that really sucks .. especially since I put code in
specifically
to prevent that kind of thing from happening! You might want
to check
the actual mail file in /var/mail to see if it still exists
(in case it is just
an indexing error), and also check for
/var/mail/username.del in case
the deletion got interrupted half way.

Checked /var/mail and just saw the empty mailfile, no *.del
file either ;-(
Guess I lost all my mails huh. Ohwell, guess this'll teach me
always to make a backup :-/
