Hi poc... thx for your reply

3.10 is probably older, but the Mint release is pretty current and even though I have no heartburn with 
building the package I have sometimes found that building creates inconsistency with other libraries or 
packages.  Not sure if that's the case here.  If that's no so, then sure, I'll build to the current stable 
release.

The 1.5G is size of the mailbox after backup. 

This is running SMTP. No local MTA.

I will run from the command line and capture the error.  Thx for the reminder.
