Re: Insufficient Permissions with local accounts

AFAIK SuSE uses sendmail, 
the procmail version is  procmail v3.13.1 1999/04/05, 

from the mail.mc file 
.......
dnl  These mailers are available. per default only smtp is used. You have
dnl  to add entries to /etc/mail/mailertable to enable one of the other
dnl  mailers.                                                           
MAILER(`local')dnl
MAILER(`procmail')dnl
MAILER(`smtp')dnl
MAILER(`uucp')dnl
MAILER(`bsmtp')dnl
MAILER(`fido')dnl        
.......

in mailertable it says :
.....
# sendmail will look for all non-local email into this file to determine
# the transport way to the next host. the destination hostname is used
# to find an entry in this file.           
.....

and it also contains no entries.
The problem arises only when i try to send local mail, where can i find the 
configuration
for this part ?
the users can only send mail to themselves and to other non-local accounts ...

When i send am email from on local user to another i get the message

.......
  ----- Transcript of session follows -----
procmail: Insufficient privileges
550 hareter... Insufficient permission
.........

when i send an email from or to an outside account everything works fine.

Is procmail being invoked via a .forward file or is it the default
local mailer?  If the later, how did you make it the default?  For
example, if your MTA is sendmail, did you use the
`FEATURE(local_procmail)' m4 config file generator entry?
