It looks like that your MTA does not accept the path to deliver, there 
maybe simple reasons (access permissions, e.g. MTA user may not execute 
deliver) or the MTA is configured to run only specific programs, in case 
of sendmail you need to (sym)link / copy deliver to the smrsh directory, 
usually /etc/mail/smrsh
