| I'm using Maildir and so each user has a Maildir directory. What are
| qmail's requirements for permissions on the user's home directory and
| on the Maildir directory itself?
On the maildir, the only requirements are the ones that must be
fulfilled for qmail-local to put the message there: It does no
separate checking. This means that the user must have full access
rights to the tmp/ and new/ subdirectories. Plus, of course, execute
priveleges on the path to the maildir.
For the home directory, it depends how qmail was compiled, but the
user must own the home dir, and normally, it should not be writable by
others (though in some incarnations, it is OK for the home to be group
writable).
