Are you running "setrights" as admin? In which case, I think (if I remember
rightly), that the admin user can only grant rights which he/she has and
therefore if you take away the mail priveledge from the admin user, (s)he
cant reassign it to him/herself as (s)he doesn't have the priveledge.
This doesn't seem ideal (as it makes it q. easy for careless admin users to
accidently lock themselves out of certain rights) but I think this is how
the permisisons works (off the top of my head.)

Subject: Problems with setright
Hi all,
I have problems with the "setright"-command.
I can delete the rights for the admin user - but I wasn�t able to add
the rights again!
example:
$ setrights admin -mail
<ok>
$ setrights admin +mail
User admin does not have mail privilege
I use RH7.1 and the 6.2 pre-build skel!
can anybody help?
thanks
