This appears to be from a Unix system, so I'll explain it within that context. The "cannot append to /usr/spool/mail/robertso" usually means that: - the mailbox /usr/spool/mail/robertso" has reached its maximum allowable size, or - the directory /usr/spool/mail (which usually contains everyone's mailboxes on a Unix system) has run out of disk space, or - the file permissions on the file have been changed, such that the mailer program does not have write permission. Which of these is your subscriber suffering? Who knows... I would wait a day or so, then try again. If you still receive these errors, drop a note to [log in to unmask] --Wes
