Is anyone else getting "Your request didn't contain the proper session ID cookie -- access denied!" with the Openwebmail package? If so is below how you solved it? Is there an easier way?

Q: My openwebmail was okay, but I got "Your request didn't contain the proper
session ID cookie -- access denied!" in these days?
A: Openwebmail puts user uploaded attachments in
cgi-bin/openwebmail/etc/sessions/ temporarily.
User will get error if there is no space left on the partition where
cgi-bin/openwebmail/etc/sessions/ lives or user has exceeded his disk quota.

Please move cgi-bin/openwebmail/etc/sessions to a larger partition with
diskquota disabled, then create a symbolic link to that new directory

cd /new_place

mkdir sessions
chmod 770 sessions
chown 0 sessions
chgrp mail sessions

cd yourweb_cgi-bin/openwebmail/etc/
rm -Rf sessions
ln -s /new_place/sessions .

This is generally due to a personal firewall or you are out of disk space on your account.
