RE: [SLUG] "1777" protection in Pine?

I read the man page on chmod and it says that Linux ignores the 'sticky'
bit. I did the 'chmod 1777 /var/spool/mail' as root and am still getting
the error.

I read in a newsgroup that it was an issue with the IMAP daemon and not with
Pine, but there was no solution offered. It doesn't seem to affect the
ability to read or send mail (by the way, there's only two accounts on the
system, mine and my wife's).

More ideas?
