Oggetto: [Exim] filter and save to a group writable only file
Following a recent change from sendmail to exim I am having problems
duplicating some existing bad practicse we had here.

From a filter I have

seen save group/mailfile 0664

which runs as the local user deposit:editors

and is trying to write to

-rw-rw-r--    1 traylen  editors    172678 Dec 17 18:20 mailfile


A failure occurs because deposit does not own the file but deposit is
able to touch and write to this file.

Can I configure, perhaps also in the .forward, for this lack of
ownership of the destination file to be ignored
