procmail .forward permissions warnings

Hi,

I'm trying to set up a redundant mailservers using coda, sendmail,
procmail (with Maildir), courier-imap etc.

I've managed to get procmail to deliver to user accounts by running cron
jobs which refresh the tokens for both an admin and test user. However
despite restricting permissions on the home directory I'm still getting
loads of "World writable directory" errors in my maillogs:

> [test_at_daedalus] ~ $ cfs la .
> System:Administrators  rlidwka 
>                  test  rlidwka 
> 
> [test_at_daedalus] ~ $ ls -lod .
> drwx------  5 test  nobody  - 2048 Jun  2 15:57 .

maillog excerpt:

> Jun  2 17:06:38 daedalus sm-mta[45584]: h52G6bRj045584: forward /coda/home/test/.forward.daedalus+: World writable directory
> Jun  2 17:06:38 daedalus sm-mta[45584]: h52G6bRj045584: forward /coda/home/test/.forward+: World writable directory
> Jun  2 17:06:38 daedalus sm-mta[45584]: h52G6bRj045584: forward /coda/home/test/.forward.daedalus: World writable directory
> Jun  2 17:06:38 daedalus sm-mta[45584]: h52G6bRj045584: forward /coda/home/test/.forward: World writable directory

I've tried creating the files listed with 0000 perms which makes no
difference. 

I'm running FreeBSD 4.8 with coda-5.3.20_1 installed as a package
(couldn't get the port to compile).

Can anyone suggest a better alternative to playing with
DontBlameSendmail?

Thanks,

Richard Jones
