I cannot reproduce this effect on Solaris 8. What does your "mail"
program do? Does it just call exim?

Please can you try the same experiment but using "exim root" instead of
"mail root". If you still have the same effect, please try it again with
the -d option and send me the output. It *should* have lines in it
saying something like

ensuring /.../spool/db/retry.lockfile is owned by exim
ensuring /.../spool/db/retry is owned by exim
