Package: libc-client2006j2 Version: 7:2006j2.dfsg-3 Followup-For: Bug #450665
Adding to Justin Pryzby's bugreport. libc-client is a bit too undifferentiated about the /var/mail permissions: $ ls -la /var/|grep mail lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Feb 4 2007 mail -> spool/mail $ ls -la /var/spool/|grep mail drwxrwxr-t 2 root mail 4096 Dec 24 09:36 mail So actually the directory permissions here are *more* strict than what libc-client wants. Never the less: $ mailsync # using libc-client Synchronizing stores "mail-inbox" <-> "sp-inbox"... Authorizing against {eisberg/imap} *** INBOX *** Warning: %Mailbox vulnerable - directory /var/mail must have 1777 protection *t -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.22-3-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages libc-client2006j2 depends on: ii libc6 2.7-4 GNU C Library: Shared libraries hi libcomerr2 1.40.2-1 common error description library ii libkrb53 1.6.dfsg.3~beta1-2 MIT Kerberos runtime libraries hi libpam-modules 0.99.7.1-5 Pluggable Authentication Modules f hi libpam0g 0.99.7.1-5 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii libssl0.9.8 0.9.8g-3 SSL shared libraries ii mlock 7:2006j2.dfsg-3 Mailbox locking program from UW libc-client2006j2 recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
