I see the problem now.  Try this patch:

         id = int(DateTime().timeTime())

You see, each member folder has permissions set so that by default, no
one can look at its contents.  The "Correspondence" folders should have
the opposite policy.

BTW adding skip_unauthorized is probably the right thing to do.
