[vchkpw] setting permissions in pipe execution

[Finn Smith]

Hi all,

I am currently using a .qmail-<user> file in a domain directory to pipe the contents of a message into a script on my server for local processing. Is there any way to control under which uid/gid this script executes? The reason being that it needs write access to a protected file on the system which is not accessible to my vpopmail user.

I am fairly new to the whole qmail and vpopmail setup, so forgive me if this question has an obvious answer. I have looked through the FAQs and poked around in the mailing list a fair amount, but have not been able to figure it out.

Thanks,
Finn
