Greetings, I'm using Exim on a Debian stable system and am having a configuration problem. I'm trying to deliver email to a maildir location in a users .forward file using the filter syntax. It all works fine, but the newly created directories end up with mode 0700. As I would like these to be shared directories, I want to specify mode 0750. I've tried setting the 'directory_mode' configuration option to no avail. It just seems to have no effect at all. I (think) I've verified it's set with the following. Is there something I'm missing? Should I expect this to work? Thanks in advance.
$ exim4 -bP transport maildir_home | grep mode directory_mode = 0750 lockfile_mode = 0600 mode = 0640 no_mode_fail_narrower -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- | David Mitchell ([email protected]) Network Engineer IV | | Tel: (303) 497-1845 National Center for | | FAX: (303) 497-1818 Atmospheric Research | ----------------------------------------------------------------- -- ## List details at http://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/
