It appears that FRMOP22 has reloaded a portion of their spool from several weeks ago, as detailed in the enclosed note, sent to the EARN Technical Group.

I though that was an accumulation of large files waiting for a line never freeed by small files. I was wrong. Doron Shikmoni and Peter Syvester have found where the problem was : the 2000 files were waiting for a DUMP operation prior to be transmitted (probably because of an uncomplete dump operation some weeks ago). The necessary DUMP+RELOAD operation has been successfully completed this morning. Regards, Michel Auffret ------------------ End of included file RELOAD MAIL -----------------
