Open mouth, insert foot....

After curling up with the manuals, I've managed to discover that my
problem was that the lost messages were hung up in the mmdf spools.
Running '/usr/mmdf/bin/deliver -clocal' caused all the missing mail to
appear.

HOWEVER, when I attempt to place '/usr/mmdf/bin/deliver -b -clocal' in
the file /etc/rc.d/8/userdef, at boot I get:

deliver: can't setgid to mmdf (22)
core dumped

deliver is suid root, so what's the problem?

In the mean time I have deliver -clocal running from crontab, but I'd
prefer to have it run -b from rc.
