Finder said that 1.8GB of the disk was free, but SSH'ing from another
machine into the machine that it happened with, df told me something
different; 100% was used, very few blocks were free.
I don't even know what to say in the bug-report yet...
To get the Finder to update its free space display, I usually do a
"Get Info" on one of my volumes (preferrably the one whose free space
I want to know). This causes the Finder to redo it.
I've noticed that as well.
The Finder could need a facelift, so that icons position well, shows
new folders/files, when they are created by machines over the network,
and especially the free/used space...

BTW -- This is why I'm all-but-married to Eudora. I never lost a
single mail message with it. They built in so much backups and
redundancy, that the worst thing that happens after a crash is that
you get a second copy of your message and Eudora rebuilds its table of
contents. Eudora doesn't DELE the message from the server until it's
been saved to disk successfully. And mail accounts are apparently kept
in a separate file that's only written to when you actually make
changed.

Same thing about PowerMail. I switched to Mail.app, because I thought
it would be faster, but I miss PowerMail now, and I'm thinking about
going back, as PowerMail *knows* which account to use when I'm replying
to the mailing lists. Mail.app got much better recently, but I still
find myself sending mail from the wrong account... Apart from that,
PowerMail can be used to easily trigger build-automation. This is
wonderful; using a small script that does a cvs-checkout, grabs the
version, tags the files, invokes pbxbuild, tgz the file, and copies the
tgz file to the download-directory; it's a piece of cake. If anyone
needs it, let me know. :)
Love,
Jens
