And this is why you don't use a mailing list while half asleep. I misread yoru problem. Probably still good to check that. Anyway, do you have the machine joined to its own domain? Are you running winbind to resolve the usernames etc? The issue you might be seeing is that while they have an owner that isn't there, if you use getfacl on the file it should have the ACL's to allow the group / user in question to read/write it. The non existent user could be due to winbind trying to map the user Id to an account, but you don't have the client side of the resolver setup, so it shows "non existant". using ls, check the numerical ID on the files.
