cannot be changed)
Let's back up a little. _Why_ do you want the mailboxes to be mode 660?
It is because I want to backward compatible with mail.local or /bin/mail
in solaris and sendmail use them as the local mailer in case Procmail do
not fit our requirements or badly configuration(e.g. performance overhead,
no user filtering...) Although I know procmail give me much more
extensions and features as a MUA, we have been using mail.local for years
and we must ensure fast recovery once we find our newly installed procmail
configuration problem.
I am sorry if my requirement is no friendly.
