That should have been set correctly by the postinstall script. The incomplete /etc/group prevented success. >But probably I'd need to run exim-config to have a serious chance of >success? It's only required if you operate a mail server, but in this case it will set the permissions correctly. The reason why you don't see the rights (previous e-mail in thread) is most likely that you get them indirectly through membership in a group. If you are curious about that, the User control panel is your best bet.
