None when you create the group. After you do so, and run as "root":

your mail system will begin to work correctly, because "postdrop" and
"postqueue" will be able to access restricted sub-directories in the
Postfix queue.

If my response solves your problem, the best way to thank me is to not
send an "it worked, thanks" follow-up. If you must respond, please put
"It worked, thanks" in the "Subject" so I can delete these quickly.
