[horde] [ALERT] Fatal error: Permission denied in Unknown on line 0

[Prince]

By giving universal access to the Maildir/* subfolder it works. It seems the uid in the mysql table "passwd" should be able to have write access to the /Maildir/* directories. Is my assumption correct? If so, should the uid have the value of the unix uid corresponding to the "courier" user. [I am running courier-imap  as user "courier"]
 
I will change the uid and gid in the mysql table to that of the courier's.
 
 
thanks,
Prince.
