Hi,

It's not the permissions on /var/mail itself that's the problem is it? How
does the pop server lock the mailbox. I know/think some create a file and
if /var/mail isn't writabel, that's going to fail. Try using ktrace on the
pop daemon/inetd or whatever launches it. That should show you what's
failing.

Colin
