Sounds like a permissions issue on the directory. Check permissions from
the perspective of the process user of the mail server.
That ping issue also looks funny. You should get a reply back from
127.0.0.1 Try this entry instead:
127.0.0.1 Buddy localhost localhost.localdomain
It might help, but I'm not sure with that one. Also try to ping from the
other machine to it with a buddy entry added to /etc/hosts.
