There is some problem with the mail group i think.

(flo@paradigm)~# ls -lad /var/spool/mail/
drwxrwsr-x   2 root     mail         1024 Sep 26 15:35 /var/spool/mail/

(flo@paradigm)~# ls -lad /var/spool/mail/flo
-rw-rw----   1 flo      mail       813438 Sep 26 11:08 /var/spool/mail/flo

All mailbox accessing utilities if NOT root should be sgid mail ... Are they ?
