[Dxspider-support] Spider-Mailbox

[Dirk Koopman]

This sounds like somekind of corruption. I have not heard of this
happening before. Have a look at /spider/msg, there should be a load of
'm000nnn' files which are the messages and also the file 'Msgno'
contains the _last_ msg number.

It should reorder the files if you restart the node, but you are likely
to have a problem if there is already a file with an existing msgno. 

I would edit 'Msgno' so that it starts at say 400 or just get rid of the
'm0*' files and Msgno and then restart the node.
