[PLUG] sendmail setup


My old sendmail always allowed a non root user (I am the only user on the
system) to do a 'mailq' - now I get a permission denied. I compared
permissions on both systems and they were the same as far as I can tell.

doug@slate:~> mailq
can not chdir(/var/spool/mqueue/): Permission denied
Program mode requires special privileges, e.g., root or TrustedUser.
Warning: Cannot use HostStatusDirectory = .hoststat: No such file or
directory
