Perhaps it is somehow off the subject but related to file permissions on mail
account.
My customers need http virtual servers so I made extra directory Page on mail
account wher Mailbox file resides. They can ftp to own mail account using the
same
name and passw as the do to read post. They transfer files onto Page.
However, Http server needs a customer directory to be eXecutable for others to
be
able to run index.html on Page directory. Mailbox file itself is only readable
by the
owner. Does such a structure brings any danger?
