        Pan stores its configuration in the file, ~/.gnome/Pan -- if the drive 
that was on filled up, and Pan tried to write to this file, it may have 
been truncated to 0 bytes.  If that's the case, you will either have to 
restore this file from a backup copy, or re-configure Pan as if it *were* 
a new installation.

        (If it's not zero bytes now, Pan may have filled it with new, default 
values.  I don't know if it will do that, however, because that has not 
happened to me.)
