I'm trying to replace procmail with deliver but I'm having problems with the group part of things. I keep getting:

My primary group is mimo and I think it's trying to use that. I changed it to mail and things work. But I do not want all my users to have a primary group mail.
Is there a way I can force deliver to use group mail as group and ignore the per user gid?
Do you run deliver as root? If so, for now you could do this:
protocol lda { restrict_setextragroups = mail }
I'll fix mail_extra_groups to work with deliver for v1.0.5.
Or actually not. Too big of a chance to break someone's setup. deliver setups are always a bit kludgy. :) But fixed to v1.1: http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot/rev/dee75c83d6f4
