Sorry to intrude on the list for a slightly OT issue.  Tried to email Mike
directly but get "<michael@**********.NET>... Deferred: 451 4.3.2 Please try
again later" so thought I'd try here.

Been working on getting MS up and running 9.3, and it's gone quite well.  I
got the new MailWatch.pm without any trouble - thanks for the heads up on
that, Mike.  But I'm a bit befuddled by one thing in MailWatch.  The
instructions are geared towards a Redhat apache install, which is different
than the SuSE apache2 install.  They say to check permissions on
/var/www/html/mailscanner/images, and that they should be owned by
root:apache.  I set them to be owned by root:www since that's the group SuSE
uses.

They say to do basically the same thing /var/www/html/images/cache but there
is no images/cache file or directory under web root (/src/www/htdocs in
SuSE's case).  Did you create those manually?  And is cache a directory?  I
assume it is, but it isn't clear from the instructions.  Obviously
WEBROOT/images is a directory since it contains cache.

TIA...
