Hey all!

Please forgive me, if I'm being dumb right now... It has gooten a bit
late over here...


I had a problem with delivering mail...
No Permissions: creating lock file hitching post
/var/spool/mail/<USERNAME>.lock........

after doing chmod o+w on /var/spool/mail everything worked again...
but, ...in my opinion its not a good thing to have write permissions for
everyone set on the spool directory, isn't it?
