	The "router" directory protection needs to be 1777
	(like also with "public").  And as you apparently put
	logs to that same directory-tree, I suggest you add
	the T-bit to your 777 at "log" directory too, because
	plain 777 is way too open...

	What protections do you have at the $MAILSHARE directory
	there ?  (I really should write a program to do automatic
	protection verifications, apparently it really has a call..)
