It looks like the process above which is trying to write has skym> gid 25, which is smmsp. The /var/spool/mqueue file allows writing by skym> this group, so I don't understand. Thanks in advance for any help. Sounds like you didn't run mergemaster and install /etc/mail/submit.cf. The permissions on /var/spool/mqueue should be: drwxr-xr-x 2 root daemon 512 Jun 24 13:53 /var/spool/mqueue or: drwx------ 2 root daemon 512 Jun 24 13:53 /var/spool/mqueue To Unsubscribe: send mail to [email protected] with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
