We are in the process of updated an HPUX server and MIMEDefang. I'm pretty sure this is a sendmail problem and not a MIMEDefang problem but perhaps someone could give me a pointer. (It's late and I'm not thinking were well.)
At any rate here is what's happenning. Mail originating on the machine works. Get scanned by MIMEDefang and delivered locally. Mail originating on another machine get's bounce with the following: ----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors ----- <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (reason: Insufficient permission) ----- Transcript of session follows ----- mail: cannot append to /var/mail/spinhirn Mail saved in dead.letter 550 5.0.0 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>... Insufficient permission The permission on the mail spool is 660 spinhirn mail Changing the permissions to 666 causes things to work ok. (Obviously not someting we can use in production.) I seems that locally sent sendmail is getting delivered by a process with different permissions that externally delivered mail but I have not be able to find the difference. We have the same system running on another box and it is working ok. I have not been able to determine the difference. Perhaps someone can tell me the stupid mistake I cannot see.
