Hello, I don't expect an easy solution to this, but I am curious nonetheless. What I want to know is this: is there any way to restrict or encrypt users mail files in /var/mail so that not even root can read the files? My reasons are simple - I am running SMTP/POP3 on my server, and I am setting up a few friends with mail accounts, and I want them to be assured that their mail is secure from prying eyes (including my own). Not that I can't be trusted, but I would feel better knowing that my friends' privacy is protected. I am willing to experiment a bit, but I am still pretty green when it comes to FreeBSD. ================== Quote of the Day ===================== I don't want to achieve immortality through my work.
