Hello,

there are problems with mail delivery to local mail boxes by SMAIL 
3.1.29.1 under FreeBSD 2.1.0 on local host.

local transport was reconfigured to use mail.local, however this still
causes mail to root to fail always.  If default smail local transport 
is used, then this causes mail delivery to fail always for any users 
on the system. This is related to file permission and locks somehow, 
I suspect.

Could anybody using SMAIL on v2.1.0 or later send his/her smail
configuration files ? What else could the cause ?

Thanks in advance. Dima
