hello t64-managers,

i am running T64 v5.1a with pk3 and sendmail v8.9.3.
my sendmail is running with DefaultUser=nobody:nobody.

i have the following setup in my aliases file
          .
     mailist: :include:/x/y
          .
          .

now if i have file /x/y owned by nobody, mailx to userx worked ok.

  ie. -rw-r----- 1 nobody users 49 Sep 27 13:45 /x/y

but if i assign an acl to /x/y with :-
   setacl -u user:nobody:r-- /x/y

   ie.
           # file: /x/y
           # owner: aa
           # group: bb
           #
           user::rw-
           user:nobody:r--
           group::r--
           other::---

i will be getting the following error :-

   ----- Transcript of session follows -----
550 :include:/x/y... Cannot open /x/y: Permission denied
554 mailist... aliasing/forwarding loop broken

Any idea what went wrong or is this a bug with my
current version of sendmail on v5.x?

Thanks for any response.

Frederick.
