Hello,
I wrote a small C program to access to quota files without ask cyrus. This program run under mail group. I noticed when something change in the mailbox [deleting mails, receiving mails, etc] the /var/imap/quota permissions are resetted to:
-rw------- cyrus.mail
Then mail users can't have read access to this files and my C program doesn't have read access to the files.
It is possible to change that?
In general programs which access the mail store run as the cyrus user. Inasmuch as this should be being done at all, your program should be setuid cyrus. I don't think doing this is a good idea in general, though.
