Bug Description
Binary package hint: mozilla-thunderbird
After a fresh feisty install /var/mail has the permission:
drwxrwsr-x 2 root mail 4096 2007-03-26 18:34 /var/mail
Due to this mozilla-thunderbird cannot create the required lock-file for a movemail account. It suggests to change the permission to 01777. Apparently /var/mail is not owned by any package. So I report the problem to mozilla-
