Bug Description
Binary package hint: archivemail
Version 7.0.1-1 (Feisty)
Severity: Lowest
When a root user archive MBOX file in /var/mail causes a error: "Permission Denied" because archivemail changes the permission to the owner of INBOX and this user dont have permission to write in /var/mail directory.
I dont know if it is a behavior or not, but I am sending a PATCH for the Feisty version.
So I hope help somebody.
