Berkeley sendmail and vacation - ungarbled

I'm told that my earlier note was garbled by the mailer on my PC - sorry -
here's a resend.

I just installed Berkeley Sendmail-8.8.7, and ran into a disturbing problem.
When a user is using the vacation utility and receives email, the email
bounces with a message that it did not have permission to write in
/var/spool/mqueue. What am I doing wrong? It appears to be trying to write
in the mail queue with the recipient's user, not as root.

Thanks,

David
