I've gotten a report or problems using DELIVER under VMS 5.5-1
(presumably the problem happens with 5.5-x, but nothing has been said
about that).  The problem only happens with unprivileged accounts
(specifically accounts without CMKRNL).  DELIVER has been installed
correctly (at least the privileges assigned to the various MAIL
executables ought to allow DELIVER to work).

Andy Harper (the guy with the problem) has chased the problem and it
seems that MAILSHR.EXE is turning off CMKRNL (perhaps all "unnecessary"
privileges) before entering DELIVER_MAILSHR which neatly prevents
DELIVER from being able to submit the necessary batch jobs to actually
deliver the mail.

I don't have a 5.5-1 system available to chase this one, so the question
is:

        Is anyone out there running the new version of DELIVER on 5.5-1
        and seeing any problems with it when a non-privileged user
        attempts to send mail to an account with the transport set to
        DELIVER%?

Or can you confirm that starting with V5.5 that MAIL now forces
privileges to be only what MAIL believes to be necessary (which should
break a lot of foreign transports)?
