The debian-private mailing list leak, part 1. Volunteers have complained about Blackmail. Lynchings. Character assassination. Defamation. Cyberbullying. Volunteers who gave many years of their lives are picked out at random for cruel social experiments. The former DPL's girlfriend Molly de Blanc is given volunteers to experiment on for her crazy talks. These volunteers never consented to be used like lab rats. We don't either. debian-private can no longer be a safe space for the cabal. Let these monsters have nowhere to hide. Volunteers are not disposable. We stand with the victims.

Re: Smail problem



My /var/spool/mail is not set up this way:

naoma:~$ ls -ld /var/spool/mail/
drwxrwxrwt   2 root     mail         1024 Jul  7 18:28 /var/spool/mail/

As you can see, this is mode 777 and not setgid mail.  I have never
changed my /var/spool/mail permissions so I think this comes from an
old version of Debian.  I installed this machine originally from the
Beta 0.93 (was it actually 0.93? it was the last version before 1.1)
and I have upgraded it many times passing by 1.1, 1.2 and now, 1.3.
Probably the wrong permissions were set by one of the older
distributions and have not been fixed by the newer ones.  That may
imply some of the distributions older than 1.3 are vulnerable
(machines installed from the scratch from 1.3 seem to be fine).

Could one of the security officers please investigate this?  I fear I
don't have the means to do so by myself.

Best regards,

M. S.
