Hi, I'm doing this as root :) If I delete the file /var/mail/andy then try running /usr/sbin/maidag andy <<EOF and then type From: root Subject: x test EOF then no file is created and I get the error: Cannot open mailbox /var/mail/andy: Malformed or unsupported mailer URL If I run touch /var/mail/andy chown andy /var/mail/andy then run the maidag command as above then it works What am I doing wrong?
