	I don't know how those RPM things work, but
	recently the main "install" system was altered
	in such a manner which possibly breaks them,
	or their package...

	The installation should be done with separate
	"post-install" step, which creates POSTOFFICE
	directories, and moves various files into their
	proper places.  If the RPM package is built
	WITHOUT that step, then you are likely to be in
	deep trouble..

	Luckily the help is near; execute (as root):
		/opt/mail/bin/post-install -MD5

	and things will be better. (should, at least)
	(Assuming that MAILBIN  is /opt/mail/bin, of course..)
