MailScanner 4.21-6 Repeated Start

[Philip Butler]

Marco, etc.,

Just to add fuel to the fire....

I am getting the same thing with 4.20-3.  When I look at the syslog
file, I get:

        /var/spool/mqueue is not owned by user 1

User 1 is 'bin' in my /etc/passwd file.  I have the /var/spool/mqueue
chmod'ed to 777, chgrp'ed to bin (bin and root are in this group), and
everything else I know of to make user 'bin' able to write to this
directory.
