While this may stop errors from happening (and I'm not sure it will)
this doesn't seem like the right thing to do. Consider, for example:
http://wiki2.dovecot.org/MailLocation/mbox
You almost certainly want the sgid bit set on /var/*/mail. If there's
an error here, my guess it that the mode should be 2775 not 2755. If
you'd like to confirm that, cool, otherwise I'll have a look when I get
a chance.
Thanks,
