I just did an update of potato today for the first time in over a month (I recently moved and am finally getting caught up with things). After the update I found that I could not send any mail. /var/log/mail.log showed an error message: NOQUEUE: SYSERR(nielsen): cannot chdir(/var/spool/mqueue): Permission denied
I added myself to group mail and added write permissions for mail to /var/spool/mqueue and can now send mail again, but was wondering if this would cause any security problems. Is there a better way to handle the permissions problem? mail.log also shows (still) the following error: mci_lock_host: cannot create host lock file /var/lib/sendmail/host_status/net./oz./mail: Permission denied Is this something I should be concerned about?
