A couple of days ago, Lars mentioned > I suggest staying with rwxrwxrwt. with respect to the permissions for /var/spool/mail.
Mine is: drwxrwsr-t 2 mail mail 1024 Jul 31 13:08 /var/spool/mail/ I couldn't find the debian package that installed this directory, so I couldn't figure out if these permissions were "right", whatever that means. So, a) can someone tell me what package/file/script does install /var/spool/mail? (I'd use this info to find out why my search method failed.) b) Are those permissions "right"? c) Lars, what did you mean by saying "staying with rwxrwxrwt"? Regards, Susan Kleinmann [EMAIL PROTECTED]
