That could cause problems.  Generally it should run as user 'mail' on both systems, but that doesn't really matter.  

The thing that does matter and is probably the problem is that the root directory path for mail boxes must be owned by
the user surgemail is running as so it can create new directories in there.


To control/define what user surgemail runs as you set the ownership on the g_home directory.

Then
      chown mail /usr/local/surgemail
      chgrp mail /usr/local/surgemail
      chown -R mail /usr/local/surgemail 
      chown -R mail /MAILBOX/PATHS...

Then restart surgemail. (These instructions do not appy to osx!)

If that doesn't fix it then we need to look at the errors in pop.log and mail.log on the slave.
