I got a solution for my problem. I had to set CHECK_UNOWNED to "no" in /etc/security/msec/security.conf, so that the Mandrake security scripts don't set ownership to nobody. Is this documented somewhere? Hope someone besides me has use for this information. Jan Dittberner

I have problems with some Outlook clients which want to connect to the vpop3 daemon on my Mandrake box. They get: "-ERR cannot open mailbox /var/spool/vmail/hostname//username" from the server. Is this a known problem? Is there a solution? Thanks Jan Dittberner
