FreeBSD Port: mail/thunderbird

[Stefan Thurner]

Hi,

I would like to use a movemail account in thunderbird to 
read locale mail. But at the first start thunderbird 
complains that it could not create a /var/mail/user.lock 
file. It suggests to chmod 01777 the spool directory.

I have done chmod 1777 /var/mail.

But the error still occurs and thunderbird does not read the 
mail from my system mailbox.

What I'm doing wrong?


best regards
-Stefan
