Neomail requiere that the mailbox of the users have permissions 660
Procmail always set permissions 600 to all mailboxes in /var/spool/mail
I need procmail set permissions 660 to all mailboxes in /var/spool/mail/
I don't want to set UMASK=007 in the .procmailrc in each user home
That wouldn't work anyway, as the permissions on new mailboxes are set
when they're 'screened' before procmail opens any rcfiles.
Procmail will only use a umask of 007 when creating mail spools if
1) the spool directory is *not* owned by the user that procmail is
started as or setuid to (i.e., not owned by root), and
2) procmail _is_ setuid to the group of the spool directory, and
3) either the setgid bit is set on the spool directory or the spool is
not world writable.
