I tried to use NoPriv (https://github.com/RaymiiOrg/NoPriv/) to backup emails to an USB Disk which is formatted for Windows compatibility, i.e. FAT-type filesystem, but got the error below. Seems mailbox.py still tries to create a symbolic link, which is not possible on this filesystem.
Running on ext3 file system works fine. This is on Ubuntu Precise 12.04 with latest updates installed. Python is 2.7.3-0ubuntu3.1
Getting messages from server from folder: [Gmail]/Sent Mail.
