Terence -- Before I forget, I should note that the proper list address is not the @gbnet address but [EMAIL PROTECTED] as I have set it above. While mutt.org is currently hosted at gbnet and the @gbnet form sometimes leaks through, it's better to use the @mutt.org address.
...and then Terence Ng said... % % Hi! Hello! % % I have just set up my mail server using postfix. Then I read the mail by using Mutt. After I read the mails and want to delete it, I press 'd' or '^d'. But, I got 'Mailbox is read-only' message. Why? It sounds like mutt was not installed as a member of the mail group or like mutt_dotlock was not installed with special permissions, depending on how your mutt build is configured. % % I have checked the permission by typing: % ls -ld /var/spool/mail/ngterry Check the permissions of mutt and mutt_dotlock with something like ls -ld `which mutt` `which mutt_dotlock` and then check how mutt was built with mutt -v and let us know what you get.
