What do the rights look like? You may need to do a: chown -R user.group /home/user/Maildir run this as root, replace user with your username and group with your primary group (probably same as user) and /home/user with your own home directory path. If that doesn't fix it, is /var/log/maillog saying anything? Do a: ls -al /home/user/Maildir and post the results here. Jay -- Jay Lee Network / Systems Administrator Information Technology Dept.
