File locking broken with 2.99.45 on FreeBSD 2.1
Is anyone using ZMailer on FreeBSD? I've installed it on my PC,
486DX80 with 32MB. After installation, I tried testing it by sending
a message to another local address, but I did not see the message
delivered to the local mailbox, nor did I recieve a bounce message.
I went rummaging in $POSTOFFICE/queue to see if I could figure out
what went wrong, and I found this in one of the message files:
% channel error
% todsn ORCPT=rfc822;postoffice
% to <postoffice>
% env-end
% To: dummy:; (error trapped source)
% From: The Post Office <postmaster>
% Sender: mailer-daemon
% Subject: Double-fault: Delivery reports about your email
% Cc: The Post Office <postoffice>
% MIME-Version: 1.0
% Content-Type: multipart/report; report-type=delivery-status;
% boundary="A41C6D020.854311499=_/pino.connectnet.com"
%
% --A41C6D020.854311499=_/pino.connectnet.com
% Content-Type: text/plain
%
% This is a collection of reports about email delivery
% process concerning a message you originated:
%
% <local root alcocer 0>: can't dotlock "/var/spool/mail/alcocer": Permission deni
% ed (this is abnormal, investigate!)
How should file locking be configured on FreeBSD? In case it matters,
I *was* running 2.99.26 with HOSTENV (in Config) set to FreeBSD-2.0,
and I was not encountering file locking problems before.
Any advice/suggestions appreciated.
