IMAP problem in 6.01
« on: September 26, 2005, 08:43:25 AM »
Today, I was suddenly unable to send mail.  After looking at the logs I found the following in the IMAP log:

2005-09-25  08:56:37.371206500  imap(root): Fatal: We couldn't drop root privileges

Also, I think I found a fix, but I am have no idea how to do this in SME.

"the fix for your problem is to not use wheel group as the
primary group for your user in /etc/passwd, rather move the user to
wheel group in /etc/group and use some other primary group.

Any assistance you can provide would be appreciated.
