Package: zmailer
Version: 2.99.56-2
Severity: important

After installing the zmailer package and nominally removing "exit 0" from
/etc/init.d/zmailer, the zmailer system is left in a state where routing
always fails. Sending any mail results in "routing deferred" in syslog.

/var/log/zmailer/router reveals the cause of the problem:

   [31791] router: rename(56970,../queue/H/E/56970): No such file or directory
   etc.

where /var/spool/postoffice/queue (nor router nor transport) do not have the
expected subdirectories.

The solution to this is either

1. to create the subdirectories when the Debian package is installed, or

2. to specify ROUTERDIRHASH=0 and SCHEDULERDIRHASH=0 in the default
   /etc/zmailer/zmailer.conf
