All,
since upgrading to courier-0.44.2_1 I receive the following errors: Mar 10 6:34:33 box courierd: Purging /var/spool/courier/msgq Mar 10 6:34:33 box courierd: Purging /var/spool/courier/msgs Mar 10 6:34:33 box courierd: Permission denied Mar 10 6:34:33 box courierd: ABNORMAL TERMINATION, exit status: 1 Mar 10 6:34:33 box courierd: Will restart in 60 seconds. ... etc repeat
This looks like the GID/UID issue that has come up before, but they are the same for me:
/etc/group
courier:*:1003:courier
/etc/passwd courier:*:1003:1003:Courier Mail System:/nonexistent:/sbin/nologin
The fact that you have a courier userid/groupid on your system does not necessarily means that Courier was compiled with its userid/groupid set to the same; nor that a previous version of Courier also used the same userid/groupid.
Run "courier-config" which shows the configuration parameters for the currently installed version of Courier, and go from there.
