Updated for 10.5
Authored by: vxbush on Sep 04, '10 07:30:37AM

I ran into a problem where my inbox was set as read-only, but it wasn't a problem with the changed user name. Somehow the extended attributes got set as follows:

0 drwx------+ 4 user group 136 Dec 24 13:54:21 2008 INBOX.mbox 0: group:everyone deny add_file,delete,add_subdirectory,delete_child,writeattr,writeextattr,chown

Run the following command to get rid of the attributes:

% chmod -a# 0 INBOX.mbox/

And then make sure you have complete access by doing:

chmod u+rwx INBOX.mbox/

Maybe this will help someone else with the same problem as me and is doing a Google search.
