I've seen a number of articles recently talking about the fact NeXT apparently  
has set the wrong file permissons on the template Mailboxes directories.  Would  
someone please post what they think the permissions should be?  For instance,  
it seems reasonable that read permission by others should not be set but does  
one need write or execute permisson by others so they can send you mail?   
Thanks!
