[Mail.Counter] Chances are, your new mail message counter has been corrupted. This usually happens when a user modifies the file protection on his/her mail files (the files with a .MAI suffix) so that (s)he can subsequently delete them. (See the previous item for the correct procedure to remove mail files.) The counter can also be set to an invalid value during the restoration of backup files. To update your new mail message counter, issue the command READ/NEW in MAIL after you have verified you do not have any new mail messages. Exit MAIL, then invoke it again to determine if your new mail message counter has been corrected. If not, send an E-mail message to OPERATOR to request an update of your new mail message counter.
