Subject:[courier-users] Courier tries to deliver to privileged system accounts (uid<500)Actions...

This what I discovered in the logfile. It fails to deliver and then it defers. The result is that the sending mta keeps trying to send it. It looks like a serious bug, but maybe it is a misconfiguration? It can open big security holes... I have installed courier-0.40.1-1.7.2 on RedHat 7.2. Is there any way of setting the minimum uid?

Joost.
