pop spool-dir issue with qpopper
As recently as 4.0.4-2, the qpopper package sets /var/spool/pop to
mode 2775, root/mail. However, for some reason, when set that way, I
get errors like:
Jun 7 09:57:09 mail01 in.qpopper[16028]: USERNAME at HOSTNAME (IP):
-ERR [SYS/TEMP] Failed to create /var/spool/pop//.USERNAME.pop with
uid 724, gid 0. Change permissions. [pop_dropcopy.c:1493]
So, something is amiss. I've found that setting it to 3777 seems to
solve the problem, but that's probably suboptimal from a security
standpoint.
Have I got something dorked in my configuration, or is there an error
in the way the qpopper package is setting permissions?
