[luau] Courier Imap Troubles

[Tom_Gordon/RISE/HIDOE at notes.k12.hi.us]

I use exim/courier on my bsd box for mail.

my permissions for my user's homes are all 755,my Maildirs are 770 and 
have a user:mail ownership.  Files are 660.

files with a dot in front of them can be ignored.

Ok I have mucked up my Maildir permissions and I am wondering if any of 
you higher ups (in the brain category anyway) can give me a hand.
 
Error message looks like the following 

Jan 21 17:23:27 test-email imaplogin: Connection, ip=[::ffff:10.0.0.17]
Jan 21 17:23:27 test-email imaplogin: chdir: Permission denied
 
It was working until I tried adding a user and I changed permissions on 
that users directory and it mucked up the whole deal.
 
What should my permissions look like for my user folder and for the 
/Maildir?
 
Right now my user id and the mail group have read write execute rwxrwx---
 
 
I have also noticed I have the courierimapuiddb and couriersubscribed 
files under my /Maildir and I am not sure those are supposed to be there 
let alone how they got there.
 
Any help to straighten out my backward ass is apreciated. BTW, this is a 
debian box with exim, courier-imapd and squirrelmail which was running 
fine until I messed with adding a user.
