Morning Chris,

I have had the same error message! we are not alone!

I fixed this by performing:

chown -R admin.mail /var/spool

Which gets rid of that error message and gives you another, similar to:

procmail[7975]: Insufficient privileges to deliver to "baldrick"

That can be fixed with a :

chmod ug+s /usr/bin/procmail

Then it works, the only reservation we have with this method is the security 
implications of setting this sticky bit on procmail, so at present I would be 
cautious about using this method.

I'm currently working on a way around this and will post one when I have one!

Cheers,

Nigel.
