#438871 - jabber: do not run as group:adm http://bugs.debian.org./438871

You should know that mailing n@B.D.O doesn't reach the submitter.

In fact, logrotate can create files with given owner/group/mode.

Daemon's shouldn't be in special groups. They could be in group:nobody, but only if they don't create any files.

Jabber shouldn't run in group adm since it allows access to files to which jabber doesn't need access.
