   Is that the name of the jam area filenames (without the extensions)?   
      
   Mine have more readable names. For instance when I reply to this message   
   echomail.jam contains:   
      
   /home/fido/jam/fido/fmailhelp 998

   Do you run Golded and the sendmail script as the same linux user? Is that user   
   also the owner of the echomail.jam file and the jam area files?   
      
   What does the log say?
