Subject:[courier-users] Permission issues since moving to 0.44.0Actions...

Any ideas?

I used portupgrade on FreeBSD to move from 0.42 to 0.44, and since then I get errors like this in the maillog:

Dec 15 11:18:49 panther courieresmtpd: started,ip=[209.212.102.154] Dec 15 11:18:49 panther courieresmtpd: Permission denied Dec 15 11:18:49 panther courieresmtpd: Permission denied Dec 15 11:18:53 panther courieresmtpd: started,ip=[196.39.31.25] Dec 15 11:18:53 panther courieresmtpd: Permission denied Dec 15 11:18:53 panther courieresmtpd: Permission denied

I haven't been able to figure out what permission is being denied...

I have noticed that many of the courier processes are now running as user mailnull, even though I specify a user called courier in the esmtpd file. In desparation I even set mailnull and courier to the same userid, but no dice.

HHH EEE LLL PPP !!!

Thanks in anxious anticipation,

Regards, Patrick.
