/va/mail changes group to gid (instead of group mail )after reboot
2007-12-25 9:48:00
Brought system to single user mode and changed permission and rebooted to
multiuser mode.
I was immediately able to receive my E-mails.
Thanks in advance for all other responses yet to come.

Check the permissions on the /var/mail directory on your box, the actual
directory in /var that lies underneath the mount point.
Reboot to single user and check before autofs starts.
