'couriertcpd' and 'logger' run as root, but not 'imapd'.

The output of ls -lan would have helped.
I still dont know the numerical uid of 'vpopmail', try this:
cd /var/qmail/vpopmail/domains/domain.no/davidk/Maildir
su vpopmail -c "touch test"
su vpopmail -c "ls -lan ."
su vpopmail -c "rm -v test"
there should be no errors, repeat in the subdirectory ./tmp
If you get errors also check the parent directories, they all
must have at least world-searchable permission.
