It depends on what you use the "mail" and "nogroup" for. The mail_privileged_group is used for creating dotlocks to directories where you normally don't have write access (/var/mail). mail_access_groups gives the process full access to the group, allowing the user to read/write to all files/dirs readable/writable by that group.
Hi Timo, I use "mail" for /var/mail (you're correct):
drwxrwxr-x 3 root mail 488 Mar 10 22:26 /var/mail/
and "nogroup" for /var/spool/virtual. So in thesis, the
following should work, right?
mail_privileged_group = mail
mail_access_groups = nogroup
At least it seems to work here. Thanks.
