Hmm - interesting - I have always though that homedir owned by 
root is a definition of system account which does not get mail 
delivered to...

Anyway, the trick with --x bit is neat but it assumes educated user 
anyway, since adding program deliveries results in temporary 
deferrals and eventually bounces after a week.


What's wrong with some kind of /bin/smrsh approach? (If I 
understand it correctly, smrsh runs only programs that are 
softlinked into /etc/smrsh; ie. root sets up which programs are 
allowed to be run.) I must say that running programs like "forward" 
or "bouncesaying" pretty much helps in cases of complicated
user-ext setups...
