It is a hole, i.e., someone can remove your mail directory should it ever be empty, though that's not ever supposed to be the case. Also, they can rename your mail box though they can't remove it and replace it with a new one. I should think of something better. --upas-cxxgvxzjmgytaxzufwvirskhlt Content-Type: message/rfc822 Content-Disposition: inline Received: from plan9.cs.bell-labs.com ([135.104.9.2]) by plan9; Sat Sep 20 06:20:20 EDT 2003 Received: from mail.cse.psu.edu ([130.203.4.6]) by plan9; Sat Sep 20 06:20:18 EDT 2003 Received: by mail.cse.psu.edu (CSE Mail Server, from userid 60001) id 2431B19B1A; Sat, 20 Sep 2003 06:20:17 -0400 (EDT) Received: from psuvax1.cse.psu.edu (psuvax1.cse.psu.edu [130.203.6.6]) by mail.cse.psu.edu (CSE Mail Server) with ESMTP id 03DD7199E4; Sat, 20 Sep 2003 06:20:12 -0400 (EDT) X-Original-To: 9fans@cse.psu.edu Delivered-To: 9fans@cse.psu.edu Received: by mail.cse.psu.edu (CSE Mail Server, from userid 60001) id 629E219ADE; Sat, 20 Sep 2003 06:19:10 -0400 (EDT) Received: from ar.aichi-u.ac.jp (ar.aichi-u.ac.jp [202.250.160.40]) by mail.cse.psu.edu (CSE Mail Server) with ESMTP id 044C219A26 for <9fans@cse.psu.edu>; Sat, 20 Sep 2003 06:19:09 -0400 (EDT) Received: from ar.aichi-u.ac.jp ([61.211.131.3]) by ar; Sat Sep 20 19:19:06 JST 2003 X-warning: suspect envelope domain X-warning: suspect From: domain Mime-Version: 1.0 (Apple Message framework v552) Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed From: Kenji Arisawa To: 9fans@cse.psu.edu Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Message-Id: X-Mailer: Apple Mail (2.552) Subject: [9fans] permission bit of /mail/box Sender: 9fans-admin@cse.psu.edu Errors-To: 9fans-admin@cse.psu.edu X-BeenThere: 9fans@cse.psu.edu X-Mailman-Version: 2.0.11 Precedence: bulk Reply-To: 9fans@cse.psu.edu List-Id: Fans of the OS Plan 9 from Bell Labs <9fans.cse.psu.edu> List-Archive: Date: Sat, 20 Sep 2003 19:18:58 +0900 X-Spam-Status: No, hits=0.0 required=5.0 tests=USER_AGENT_APPLEMAIL version=2.55 X-Spam-Level: X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 2.55 (1.174.2.19-2003-05-19-exp) Hello, I can't create mail box by mail -c Permission bit of /mail/box of my system is term% ls -l /mail d-rwxrwxr-x M 8 upas upas 0 Jun 6 2002 /mail/box d-rwxrwxrwx M 8 upas upas 0 May 2 2002 /mail/faxoutqueue d-rwxrwxrwx M 8 upas upas 0 May 2 2002 /mail/faxqueue d-r-xr-xr-x M 8 upas upas 0 May 2 2002 /mail/fs d-rwxrwxr-x M 8 upas upas 0 Jun 7 22:51 /mail/lib d-rwxrwxrwx M 8 upas upas 0 May 17 2002 /mail/queue d-rwxrwxr-x M 8 arisawa upas 0 May 17 2002 /mail/ratify d-rwxrwxrwx M 8 upas upas 0 Nov 17 2002 /mail/tmp The bit came from plan9.db term% grep mail plan9.db ... mail - 20000000775 upas upas 1019918807 0 mail/box - 20000000775 upas upas 1019918807 0 mail/box/glenda - 20000000775 glenda glenda 1019918807 0 ...
