Aug 21 12:24:29 agape sendmail[1809]: g7LGOTAF001809: SYSERR(uucp): collect: 
Cannot write ./dfg7LGOTAF001809 (bfcommit, uid=6, gid=25): Permission denied

uid 6 is my smmsp user.

I'm not sure what directory "." is in this log entry. That's kind of annoying.
Could it be the fact that my uucp spool directory is owned by uucp?

Here are user uucp's entry in the password file:

uucp:*:6:6::0:0:UNIX-to-UNIX 
Copy,system,,:/var/spool/uucppublic:/usr/libexec/uucico

Here are it's home directory's permissions:

drwxrwxr-x  29 uucp    uucp    1024 Aug 21 12:43 uucp/
drwxrwxrwx   2 uucp    uucp     512 Sep 18  2001 uucppublic/

But what is /var/spool/uucp ?

It would probably help if I had a better understanding of how sendmail did 
business.

HTH.
