I have added the line recommended below but I am still getting a similiar error, except now I have Oct 17 05:43:38 infinity mail.local: setreuid(0, 0): Operation not permitted (r=1, e=1) So I decided to look for the file mail.local and notice the following: -r-xr-xr-x 1 bin bin 73967 Oct 16 12:28 /usr/local/libexec/mail.local I also have mail.local at /usr/libexec/ /usr/local/bin/ but those two mail.local file has ownership root and group wheel. Shouldn't all have them have ownership root and group wheel? Many thanks once again.
