Another question from someone who is making great progress towards Qmail installation.
After following the instructions in INSTALL.mbox, I have the following results and
questions.
===============================================================
root@caesar:/var/spool/mail# ll
total 10
drwxrwxrwt 2 root mail 1024 Jul 26 11:12 ./
drwxr-xr-x 15 root root 1024 Mar 12 14:21 ../
-rw-rw---- 1 root mail 7394 Mar 31 21:42 root
root@caesar:/var/spool/mail# ln -s /var/spool/mail/root ~/Mailbox/root
root@caesar:/var/spool/mail# ll ~/Mailbox
total 4
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 1024 Aug 29 07:50 ./
drwx--x--- 34 root root 3072 Aug 29 07:42 ../
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 Aug 29 07:50 root -> /var/spool/mail/root
root@caesar:/var/spool/mail#
===============================================================
Why are the file permissions of the source file and the linked file different here?
Is that the way it is supposed to be?
Thank you in advance.
