I'll keep mtools in mind, but the error I got via WebMin was a result of copying a user file and changing the owner and group into root... but the file did get copied ... :-)

mtoolstest(1)						      General Commands Manual						     mtoolstest(1)

Name
       mtoolstest - tests and displays the configuration

Note of warning
       This  manpage  has been automatically generated from mtools's texinfo documentation, and may not be entirely accurate or complete.  See the
       end of this man page for details.

Description
       The mtoolstest command is used to tests the mtools configuration files. To invoke it, just type mtoolstest without any  arguments.   Mtool-
       stest  reads  the  mtools configuration files, and prints the cumulative configuration to stdout. The output can be used as a configuration
       file itself (although you might want to remove redundant clauses).  You may use this program to convert old-style configuration files  into
       new style configuration files.

See Also
       Mtools' texinfo doc

Viewing the texi doc
       This  manpage  has  been automatically generated from mtools's texinfo documentation. However, this process is only approximative, and some
       items, such as crossreferences, footnotes and indices are lost in this translation process.  Indeed, these items have no appropriate repre-
       sentation  in  the manpage format.  Moreover, not all information has been translated into the manpage version.	Thus I strongly advise you
       to use the original texinfo doc.  See the end of this manpage for instructions how to view the texinfo doc.

       *      To generate a printable copy from the texinfo doc, run the following commands:

		     ./configure; make dvi; dvips mtools.dvi

       *      To generate a html copy,	run:

		     ./configure; make html

       A premade html can be found at `http://www.gnu.org/software/mtools/manual/mtools.html'

       *      To generate an info copy (browsable using emacs' info mode), run:

		     ./configure; make info

       The texinfo doc looks most pretty when printed or as html.  Indeed, in the info version certain examples are difficult to read due  to  the
       quoting conventions used in info.
