OK, now we're getting somewhere..... Here is the error I get under the
nagios user:

WARNING: RunAsUser for MSP ignored, check group ids (egid=1001, want=120)
can not chdir(/var/spool/mqueue-client/): Permission denied
Program mode requires special privileges, e.g., root or TrustedUser.

What is the best way to resolve this without causing a security problem?
