The directory permissions and the permissions for the files under that directory are 
different. All anybody and everybody can do is see how big my mails are.

Having said that, The problem does go away if the directory permissions are changed, 
but then pine can't read the mailbox.

I upgraded to Sendmail 8.11.2 yesterday. Apparently the latest sendmail has a lot more 
security considerations.
