 Hi,

Sorry if this is a dumb question but why does Qpopper need setuid/setgid rights? What happens if I disable them with some host based IDS (i.e. Novell AppArmor)?
 Thank you in advance for your help.

 Regards,
 Andras

Qpopper uses setuid/setgid to drop privileges. It also uses seteuid/setegid at times.
