Hello,

Despite it isn't a pure perl problem, I hope somebody can help, after a few hours spent without solution, thank you!


I need to pipe the incoming email at xxx@domain.com (CentOS, Plesk, qmail). In the correct place I setup a .qmail.xxx file with :

| /var/etc.../domain.com/httpdocs/test/test.pl

test.pl is chmod 755, chown popuser, chgrp popuser, the directory /test/ is chmod 755

I also tried 777 for both, tried user/group as root, as the usual user/group of the domain, etc

It does not work, qmail log shoes a "permission denied" when trying to run test.pl

Any suggestion?

Thanks for assistance !
