Hello, on a webserver, where users send email by calling /usr/sbin/sendmail, I have dozends of entries like this in the mainlog:
2007-06-20 00:45:02 1I0mRa-0003LA-Cm == [EMAIL PROTECTED] R=localuser T=local_delivery defer (13): Permission denied: creating lock file hitching post /var/mail/u15733.lock.myserver.46785c6e.00003232 (euid=15733 egid=1000) What I don't understand is: Why is exim trying to make lockfiles? And why is he trying to create lockfiles in /var/mail? I have configured a completely different spool directory. In fact, the permission is denied, because the users don't have write access to this directory.
