Hi, I've the following permissions ($USER == joze)
-rw--w---- 1 y1zln mail 508 Feb 7 09:10 /var/mail/joze drwxrwxr-x 3 root mail 8192 Feb 7 09:09 /var/mail I can't change anything at /var/mail as I've no root priviledges. I found out, that the lock file can't be created in /var/mail and therefore my mailbox is opened read-only. I've also found a hack set dotlock_program="true" as mutt checks the return status of the dotlock_program. My question: is there a 'clean' way, that is for example creating a lock file in a $USER readable directory ? -- Johannes
