Following an upgrade from 5.0 to 6.0, zmailer fell to pieces--> possibly
due to the sendmail upgrade in 6.0. Anyway, examing scheduler logs shows
a whole bunch of messages like this:

19990604000436 /usr/sbin/ta/mailbox: 73906/165//error2 can't dotlock
"/var/spool/mail/rajan": Permission denied (this is abnormal, investigate!)
19990604000436 /usr/sbin/ta/mailbox: 73884/1429//error2 can't dotlock
"/var/spool/mail/reid": Permission denied (this is abnormal, investigate!)

I don't know if this is a zmailer problem, general problem, or what...
Anyway, I have resurrected an old mail server which could die at any
time. And this is causing major headaches for me (in fact, this list
will be lucky if it didn't get a bounce, I think I caught most of them).
If anybody has any ideas or suggestions, please pass them onto me.

Good Night.
