Greetings,

	We had a series of longer than battery outages on wednesday, and 
when we came back online, mailman refused to run.  Heres the messages:

mailman# tail -f error

giving up

[Errno 2] No such file or directory:

Please tell me theres a reasonable recovery for this on 2.1.21 (plus a 
patch)?

Thanks!
