15.1 Private options for appendfile
mode
Type: octal integer
Default: 0600
If the output file is created, it is given this mode. If it already exists
and has wider permissions, they are reduced to this mode. If it has
narrower permissions, an error occurs unless mode_fail_narrower is false.
However, if the delivery is the result of a save command in a filter file
specifing a particular mode, then the mode of the output file is always
forced to take that value, and this option is ignored.
An easy way around this would be setting
mode = 644
mode_fail_narrower = false
in your appendfile transport, but I assume theres a way to make that
specific for the majordomo director ....
Ah, yes, here it is;
22.6 Forwardfile private options
file_transport
Type: string
Default: unset
A forwardfile director sets up a direct delivery to a file when a path
name not ending in a slash is specified as a new 'address'. The transport
used is specified by this option, which, after expansion, must be the name
of a configured transport.
Create a transport that uses appendfile and has the mode, etc, set to
what you want and call it in file_transport in majordomo_aliases.
The spec is a useful document, if you read it.
