Bug Description
If you have the `dma` package installed, and run `dpkg-reconfigure dma` and then save some new settings, the permissions on the file /var/spool/dma get changed:
Before:
drwxrws--- 2 root mail 36864 Mar 11 12:28 dma
After:
drwxrwx--- 2 root mail 4096 Jul 7 2013 dma
Notice the "s" became "x"
Due to this change, running /usr/sbin/sendmail (which is a symlink to /usr/sbin/dma) shows this error:
sendmail: can not create temp file in `/var/spool/dma': Permission denied
Found in: Ubuntu 14.04

Nevermind, I don't think this is a bug. Cannot reproduce it.
