But redhat doesn't include postfix (last I checked it was available only 
in contribs), while in mandrake is the default MTA, and in mandrake's 
standard package there's user postfix, group postfix, with no additional 
groups.
It's simply a matter to add postfix to group mail or, if you're more 
paranoid about security, put the lmpt socket in a separate directory 
owned by cyrus and group postfix.
