I use sendmail as the MTA with the keyserver's SMTP address in the aliases file, so that the message is piped to sks_add_mail. sks_add_mail tries to write the message into a <path-to-sks>/messages directory, where sks will find them up and process them. In this case, sks_add_mail runs in the context of the MTA. To get it all to work, I created the messages directory with mode 770 and set the group to match the MTA's group (in my case, mailnull). -- John Marshall
