Not that I know of. I think Emacs uses the umask setting on systems
that support it (*nixes).

Thank you very much for this FAQ!
I am an Emacs newbie and I can't understand: if I set

I get this error:
> Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-variable mail-sources)
> From Emacs Info page, I tried with:
(setq mail-sources
'((file :path "/var/spool/mail/user-name")
(directory :path "~/Mail/" :suffix ".suffix")
(pop :server "localhost" :user "XXX" :port "pop3" :password "XXXXX")))
I also set (add-to-list 'gnus-secondary-select-methods '(nnml ""))
And it works. Is this ok?
thanks-a-lot for your work! :)
