I cannot resolve this problem. > Corinna, can you solve this problem? Probably but I have definitely not the time to do this right now. In theory that should be no problem. As a first hack simply uncomment these calls or ignore the return value. If maildrop uses strict chmod settings, open them up. If maildrop then works without complaining we could care to rearranging security again. I have written a function for OpenSSH which checks if security makes sense, dependent of the used file system and if ntea/ntsec are on or off. We could recycle that functionality as desired. However, I saw in your patch that you have used `#ifndef __CYGWIN__' in the setprocgroup function. Why didn't you simply undef the HAS_SETPGRP and HAS_SETPGID defines in config.h resp. unset them explicitely in configure.in when building for a cygwin target? This is way cleaner.
