Tom,
I reckon you might be on to something. I did su to mike4, and couldn't even 
list the ~vpopmail/bin directory, let alone execute vdelivermail - in fact I 
got "Permission denied"!
....And I fixed it!
I changed permissions as follows:
~vpopmail/ - to mode 2755~vpopmail/etc/ - to mode 
40755~vpopmail/etc/vpopmail.mysql - to mode 644
It started working straight away!
Can you guys validate my changes? I want to make sure I have not opened a 
security hole.
Many thanks,Michael.
