Make sure your .maildelivery file does not allow for group or world write. "slocal" checks to make sure that .maildelivery cannot be written to by either the world or group. If either the world or group can write to .maildelivery, "slocal" stuffs the incoming mail message into your normal UNIX mail folder. - Alan Sengillo PHONE: (716) 726-9716 - - Internet: sengillo@isdc00.kodak.com - - USMAIL: Eastman Kodak Co., Dept. 698, 2 1 EP, Rochester NY, 14653-5108 -
