Betreff: [EXIM] home not accessible -- delivery not posible
hi there,

just one question: we've got users who chmod'd their home to let's say 750.
and home is nfs-mounted (no root rights over nfs!!).
so if exim wants to deliver a mail locally it looks for ~user/.forward but exim
cannot access home...

user@??? D=userforward defer (-1): failed to open
/usr/people/user/.forward (userforward director): Permission denied (euid=0
egid=0)

so, what can i do? i think the correct idea is to change root -> user,
therefore i tried to set local_delivery: ... user = ${local_part} ...but this
doesn't work.

this is a common problem, isn't it?
thanks for any hints!!
