-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Are you sure that courier is configured to run as the courier user/group? It may configured to run as something else. Common choices are mail and nobody. To find out which user courier is running as, use the courier-config program. If you discover that courier is running as something other than the courier user/group, you have two choices. You can either fix up the permitions, or you can recompile courier so that it runs as the desired user and group. - --- Joseph C.
