Hi John,

ASK does not mess with the file permissions at all. The file creation
mask is passed by your MTA (postfix) when it invokes ASK. I don't know
postfix enough to tell you how to fix it, but most MTAs allow you to
specify the mask. Check the documentation for postfix about it. If
you're using procmail, you just need to set the UMASK variable inside
your .procmailrc to something suitable.

Regards,
Paga
