A) Sounds like it is using the umask of its calling UID or EUID.

- What or 'whom' is that set to?

- Is there a 'flags' or stored CLI command-tail switch set in a script
somewhere?


B) Are the structures *later* to be owned by the same UID/EUID as
creates them, OR assigned to individual shell-account (or nologin)
'Slocal_part' user, OR owned by the Exim and/or POP/IMAP daemons..

(eg: -one that has sufficient privs to change the mode? or NOT)
