[Dovecot] deliver is ignoring mail_access_groups

[Peter Borg]

Doh. Of course.... knew it would be something obvious. What threw me is that it had correct permissions aside from this.

It's being called by postfix with -d through mailbox_command - I'm digging through postfix config now, if there's a way I can do this without making deliver setuid I'd be much happier....

Thanks, Timo,

Peter.

How are you calling deliver? Either it needs to be started up as root, or you need to make it setuid-root (and call it with -d parameter).
Otherwise it can't use mail_access_groups.
