Re: [cobalt-users] Neomail and CGIWRAP

OK. A bit of modification... since my solution didn't work as
advertised.. hehe

**Corrections
1. UMASK should be set to 007 (or at minimum, 017)
    AND
    you should chmod u+x /home/spool/mail/*

Reason being: Procmail will override permissions on mail spool unless
u+x is set.

Now, finally, it works....
