Chech the permissions of the current directory (where you, (root) are in
that moment).
ssantosh shuld be able to reach that directory.
If you don't want to give that permission to ssantosh user, first you
shuld cd into his own home directory, then run the SU command.
Additionally, you shuld do a REAL login (log into your mail server using
the normal way, not through the SU command), just to see if it works.
