Hi,

As per subject, I'm having problems with mailbox ownership. Details of
setup...

Locals/Makefile (for install) - the exim user is exim
After the install, the exim binary appears to be suid root (I think)
The /var/spool/mail directory is owned by root.mail
The exim user has been added to group mail
Exim is started as root with /usr/exim/bin/exim -bd -q20m
Local delivery part of exim looks like this...
local_delivery:
driver = appendfile
file = /var/spool/mail/$local_part
delivery_date_add
envelope_to_add
return_path_add
# group = mail
# mode = 0660

The comments above in the configure file say that exim should become the
uid that the mailbox is being delivered to, only it's not.

drwxrwxrwt    2 root     mail         4096 Mar 25 11:02 .
drwxr-xr-x   15 root     root         4096 Mar 25 08:36 ..
-rw-------    1 exim     users         844 Mar 25 11:02 kelv


I've restarted exim, deleted the mailbox, even recreated the
/var/spool/mail directory, etc. Nothing has worked so far.

Anyone?
