Hi,

I want to create a big file 20G,
I tired it with fallocate, but it didn't work:

fallocate failed: Operation not supported

Does any one know how to do it?
I want to create a file container to use with dm-crypt.

I recovered a *.dbx files from an old computer.

So I imported the file in a Outlook Express.
The only problem is it only imported 30 emails are so,
But the file is 130MB.

I see there are many more email.
Why are they not imported?
