I've checked the FAQ, I've checked the list archives, I've even checked the bug reports.
I'm running OpenBSD 3.7-stable. I've installed mutt-1.4.2ip0 from /usr/ports/mail/mutt/stable . sendmail is using the default localhost.mc with just a few lines added so that it can relay via SMTP AUTH to my ISP. mutt is using the default submit.mc, calling via "/usr/sbin/sendmail -C/etc/mail/submit.cf -oem -oi" . I've verified, in so far as it is documented, that the installation is correct... -r-xr-sr-x 1 root smmsp 606532 Aug 16 05:30 sendmail drwxrwx--- 2 smmsp smmsp 512 Aug 18 01:31 clientmqueue drwx------ 2 root wheel 512 Aug 18 01:37 mqueue -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 39362 Aug 18 01:37 /etc/mail/localhost.cf -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 40257 Aug 18 02:04 /etc/mail/submit.cf $ grep smmsp /etc/passwd smmsp:*:25:25:Sendmail Message Submission Program:/nonexistent:/sbin/nologin $ grep smmsp /etc/group smmsp:*:25: So I try to send a test message to myself, and mutt complains... WARNING: RunAsUser for MSP ignored, check group ids (egid=1000, want=25) .... and sendmail (names changed to protect the innocent) complains .... Aug 18 23:47:08 hostname sendmail[448]: NOQUEUE: Authentication- Warning: hostname.domainname: Processed by username with -C /etc/mail/submit.cf Aug 18 23:47:08 hostname sendmail[448]: NOQUEUE: Authentication- Warning: hostname.domainname: Processed from queue /var/spool/clientmqueue Aug 18 23:47:08 hostname sendmail[448]: NOQUEUE: SYSERR(username): can not chdir(/var/spool/clientmqueue/): Permission denied So what is wrong with this picture, and what can I do to fix it? As far as I know, my present installation varies from the default only in the slight modification I made to localhost.mc and the compilation of mutt. If it's working okay for everyone else, what does your install look like? Concerned about your privacy?
