I changed no permissions from the default.  The permissions are as follows:

ls -ld /var/ /var/spool/ /var/spool/mail/ /var/spool/mail/talberts
drwxr-xr-x   30 root     root         4096 Apr 15 14:19 /var/
drwxr-xr-x   25 root     root         4096 Feb 12 16:11 /var/spool/
drwxrwxr-x    2 root     mail         4096 Apr 22 11:47 /var/spool/mail/
-rw-rw----    1 talberts mail          556 Apr 22 11:50 
/var/spool/mail/talberts
