Re: cannot retrieve mail in desktop client

after adding the required command in main.cf
mailbox_transport = lmtp:unix:/var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp

I'm now getting the following error

Jun 30 23:05:24 mmtlnx postfix/qmgr[13978]: 05C4A19B8A: 
from=<839556+2D3-jlmiller=mmtnetworks.com.au@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>, 
size=4281, nrcpt=1 (queue active)
Jun 30 23:05:24 mmtlnx postfix/lmtp[14146]: 05C4A19B8A: 
to=<jlmiller@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>, relay=none, delay=3, status=deferred 
(connect to /var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp[/var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp]: Permission 
denied)

I'm using:
Suse Linux Enterprise Server v 10 SP1 (will be moving to SP4)

Unfortunately I find the documentation not as clear as I had hoped.

Also do I need to make any changes to my transport table?

Regards
