Hullo there,
I'm having problems with a corrupting address book. One of my clients uses icedove aka thunderbird for her mail, and the address book is becoming corrupt on a daily basis. Googling has led me to a bug report in 2007 that never seemed to be resolved but i can find little else other than helpful instructions on how to uncorrupt the file.
This problem started when the disk filled up to 100%, but even though space has been freed up the problem is continuing.
The versions are running on lenny: ii icedove 2.0.0.22-0lenny1 free/unbranded thunderbird mail/news/rss clone ii thunderbird 1.5.0.13+1.5.0.15b.dfsg1+prepatch080614i-0etch1 Transition package for icedove rename
Has anyone else experienced such a problem? Can anyone make any suggestions?
System load is usually pretty small, but a large rsync file transfer does happen every lunchtime - seems to have no bearing on the random time of corruption though.
Any hints welcome,
Jenny

Link to the bug report please?

And I assume the address book is still corrupting even though the disk space is now allowed to become all used up? or did you see enough free disk space but cannot be sure if it has been exhausted at some point and freed up before you got a chance to look?

0lenny1 is a Debian patch to the vanilla source?
