        linuxconf is the worst thing since sliced processed cheese. :)
The proper perms/owner/group on /var/spool/mqueue should be:

drwxrwxr-x    2 root     mail         3.0k Dec  2 1997 mqueue/

        You'll need to go into the lionuxconf scripts and fix this
ridiculous need for it to change the perms to a state of inoperability;
which you are on your own.  Perhaps Mandrake would like to release a fix,
and/or might already have.  The obvious fix being 'rpm -e linuxconf'. :)
