hello friends,

I am facing problem while sending unix mail as a non-root user.Everytime
i send mail using "mailx",it says "Cannot create "qfqaa20134" in
"/var/spool/mqueue"(euid=1077): Permission denied.I am running it as user
with id 1077.i have checked my file perm for /usr/bin/mailx.it is
-r-x--s--x.owner=bin and group=mail which seems to be okay.but it is not
inheriting the effective group id of group mail.

thanks
navin
