Its definately because of suidperl.

Problem is , i rebuilt perl in six different ways (suid,no suid, suid emulation..)
and now  all it says is 'Can't do suid'.   

I'm running redhat 6.2 and there is next to no chance that i can get the kernel 
rebuilt in the correct way (if that is even necessary).  

Is there a way to run mailgate non-suid rt ?
If so, what are the consequences?

Going to do some more research on this sperl stuff ...

thanks,


_M.

ps:  thanks Jesse!
