ShadowRN came back online yesterday afternoon. Following your message
(the only one I got about it, btw... I don't post to RN very frequently
so I didn't know anything was amiss) I spent time messing with it until
the problem was solved.

Again, I'm saying that I think it is either Elm or the sendmail
configuration at your site that is making your mailbox crash.
I honestly don't see how an email message could munge your spool
unless something was configured incorrectly at your end. I
haven't seen this problem myself or from other listmembers
either, so it's _really_ hard to diagnose.
