I Listed all the directories as imap:
imap@www:~/cyrus-imapd-2.0.14$ ls -ld /var/imap/socket/lmtp
srwxrwxrwx 1 imap imap 0 May 30 22:33 /var/imap/socket/lmtp=
imap@www:~/cyrus-imapd-2.0.14$ ls -ld /var/imap/socket
drwxr-xr-x 2 imap imap 4096 May 30 22:33 /var/imap/socket/
imap@www:~/cyrus-imapd-2.0.14$ ls -ld /var/imap
drwxr-x--- 13 imap imap 4096 May 30 03:28 /var/imap/
imap@www:~/cyrus-imapd-2.0.14$ ls -ld /var
drwxr-xr-x 19 root root 4096 May 29 19:01 /var/
I configured and compiled cyrus-imapd-2.0.12 with:
./configure --with-cyrus-user=imap --with-cyrus-group=imap \
--with-auth=unix >myconfig.log 2>&1
So I would hope deliver & lmtpd would be running as imap:imap. Is there a way
to check this?
