 From a quick `man stat` --

	stat(1) - display file or filesystem status

The mail server is saying it can't get information on a file; from
my experience this is generally Not A Good Thing. :-)

The file could be gone, permissions altered, or (worst case) your
disk is going bad. I'd log into the system right away and check the
syslog to see if you're getting I/O errors. Even if not, the syslog
may have more useful error messages...

FWIW!
