This is the only user having this permission problem. All other Thunderbird/dovecot users are
getting mail file. They all have the same permissions set on their Maildir folder.

Subject: Apparent Maildir permission issue
I've just upgraded from Slackware 14.1 to 14.2. I've not done anything with dovecot -- it's the
same version that was running before the upgrade. However, now I'm getting a permission error:
/var/log/maillog:

Permission on that folder are:
$ ls -ld /home/HPRS/mark/Maildir
drwx------ 17 HPRS\mark domusers 4096 Dec 7 23:07 /home/HPRS/mark/Maildir/
Permissions are unchanged since before the backup.
What do I do to fix this?
