Re: [Exim] permissions on .forward file

Well, looking at the mainlog i see the lines:

>2002-11-21 14:08:01 Start queue run: pid=30219
>2002-11-21 14:08:01 180B59-0000B7-00 Message is frozen
>2002-11-21 14:08:01 18ExLP-0007oj-00 == dan@??? D=userforward
>defer (-11) : bad owner for /home/dan/.forward
>2002-11-21 14:08:01 End queue run: pid=30219

And that happens when i have a user "dan" with a .forward file that is
set to root:root. So if the message is frozen - how do I thaw it :) ?
