There's a good chance I could be missing something obvious here, as I
can't find much documentation on the LDA other than on the wiki, which
is sparse. Local mail delivery works for normal users, but when
attempting to deliver mail for root I get this error:
Jan 30 13:42:50 apollo deliver: Running as root isn't permitted
Both sendmail and dovecot run as root on my server - since I don't
allow shell accounts and have multiple layers of security around the
server I'm okay with that. How can I tell dovecot-lda it's okay to
deliver root's mail as root?
Thanks,
Shayne
