Those things are unrelated. The issue is that "inc" wants to lock the mail spool file. On some systems that requires that it be able to create a lock file in the spool directory, which may require being setgid to the "mail" group. As for asking for a password ... that sounds like inc is trying to retrieve email via POP. Unless they're doing something else strange. --Ken _______________________________________________ Nmh-workers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
