When I chown the files they just change back.
Anyway, when I added a user with the shells tools
/usr/sbin/cadduser --name=test555 --password='test555' --fullname='something'
--fqdn=www.thetestsite.com --admin --adminPassword='theserverpass' --quota=200
It showed a problem with the /etc/mail/access where it would not
makemap.
CCE Error:305 WARN
"[[base-email.couldnt_make_map,file=\"/etc/mail/access\"]]"
I did a makemap
makemap hash /etc/mail/access.db < /etc/mail/access
makemap: /etc/mail/access.db: line 18: key aaron (at mark) somedomainontheserver.com:
duplicate key
makemap: /etc/mail/access.db: line 21: key
aaron (at mark) mail.somedomainontheserver.com: duplicate key
makemap: /etc/mail/access.db: line 24: key
aaron (at mark) www.somedomainontheserver.com: duplicate key
I fixed that and it works now.
