The important thing are the permissions of the
/var/spool/mail _directory_, not of the _file_ in that
directory
Dotlocking will create a file /var/spool/mail/vdanen.lock.
In order to do this, mutt_dotlock needs write access to
that directory, which is normally enabled by making
mutt_dotlock setgid mail.
