For me this is deja vu, all over again: I had similar problems two years ago, getting mail up.
Smail doesn't seem to want to work. This system has just been brought up, using a hamm CD, and upgrading twice by apt, first to slink, then to potato. Hope that provides a clue. This is the kind of messages I am getting that are boring me to death: > runq: setgroups() failed: Operation not permitted > runq: cannot open /var/log/smail/paniclog: Permission denied > runq: cannot open /var/log/smail/paniclog: Permission denied > Do these say something to any kind fellow user? I tried changing permission to the log directory, with no avail. Twice.
