Hi all,

I'm receiving the following error when i send a test mail from a gmail account to my bounce address (domain name and mail address changed):

Change the permissions on /home/openemm/conf/bav/bav.rc

Code: Select all

-rw-r----- 1 root    root    1423 Sep  3 07:07 bav.rc

Sendmail runs as setuid root, and procmail bitches heartily if the permissions on that file aren't right.

Make THAT error go away anyway.
