thanks for the reply... I changed the permissions, they look like this now:

drwxr-xr-x 168 root root 8192 Nov 9 21:10 mail

But I still get the same error. /usr/local/bin/maildrop -d "jo@domain.com"

Is "jo@domain.com"'s home directory REALLY /mail?

You know, for the past 30 years that UNIX has been in existence, it has generally been accepted practice that every login account is the actual owner of its designated home directory.

What exactly are you trying to accomplish by setting every login account's home directory to /mail?
