NUT tries to send notifications from an unprivileged user and can't do so because of the permissions on /var/db/notifyqueue.messages. It works when they are sent as root.

For now we can at least suppress the error, but the underlying system in base will need a more substantial change to allow these kinds of messages from unprivileged users. Also, when it does work, the user will get two SMTP notifications as one is sent explicitly and the other from notify_all_remote().

That was just the workaround to suppress the error -- the longer term fix needs more thought on how NUT can send these messages as an unprivileged user.
