As a normal user, you shouldn't be able to remove a privileged mutt_dotlock, since it will be owned by root; the only way for that to happen is if it was world-writable anyway. If you can remove it, it was useless anyway, while if it's not useless, you shouldn't be able to remove it and get yourself into any trouble. % % -- % Vincent Lefèvre <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.org/> - 100% % validated (X)HTML - Acorn Risc PC, Yellow Pig 17, Championnat International % des Jeux Mathématiques et Logiques, TETRHEX, etc. % Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / SPACES project at LORIA :-D -- David T-G * It's easier to fight for one's principles (play) [EMAIL PROTECTED] * than to live up to them. -- fortune cookie (work) [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.justpickone.org/davidtg/ Shpx gur Pbzzhavpngvbaf Qrprapl Npg!
