Package: dovecot-common Version: 1.0.rc2-2 Severity: wishlist Currently the comment about mail_extra_groups says:
# Grant access to these extra groups for mail processes. Typical use would be # to give "mail" group write access to /var/mail to be able to create dotlocks. My first concern was whether "these extra groups" should be separated by colons or by spaces. Trawling through the other options gave ssl_cipher_list where the example uses a colon to separate the values. Unfortunately an error in the log soon demonstrated that that was wrong... My second concern is whether on a typical Debian installation Debian-exim should be included in this list, in addition to (or perhaps instead of?) mail. Also, what it does exactly is not quite clear, from the wording... how could a process give "random" other groups permission to do stuff with e.g. /var/mail. Does it mean that dovecot processes that want to do stuff get those groups' privileges? That's a bit different from the text.
