[Dovecot] file locks

Hi Timo

adding mail_extra_groups = mail has let me get further.

i copied a user mbox across to the testbox and found i could not read the
mail. looking at the mail it had a new line at the top and what look like
message markers between emails. anyway dropping the first blank line i got
the mails and the mbox has what looks like holding text to keep the mbox
with some data.

This text is part of the internal format of your mail folder, and is not
a real message.  It is created automatically by the mail system software.
If deleted, important folder data will be lost, and it will be re-created
with the data reset to initial values.

I have seen this on old pop3 mbox files on RH6.2 server i had a while back.

i also had to add ssl_disable = yes to stop Cert warnings, which i did not
do in 0.99
