    well, a few things to consider:
     
    a) use the absolute path instead of just 'Sent*'
    b) `df -k` to make sure that /home/peter has the space to hold the files
    c) permissions.  Do you have write permissions on /home/peter ?
     
    In other words, the I/O error might be outside the scope of scp.
