This is just an semi-educated guess - if I'm wrong, someone please correct
|
|
me!
|
|
|
|
Spamd setuid's to the user running spamc. Since you're calling spamc from a
|
|
global procmailrc file, it's being run as root (most likely). If called as
|
|
root, spamd won't open user_prefs files.
|
|
|
|
>>From the spamc man page:
|
|
|
|
-u username
|
|
This argument has been semi-obsoleted. To have spamd use
|
|
per-user-config files, run spamc as the user whose config
|
|
files spamd should load. If you're running spamc as some
|
|
other user though (eg. root, mail, nobody, cyrus, etc.)
|
|
then you can still use this flag.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The solution is to set DROPPRIVS=yes in /etc/procmailrc, just before running
|
|
spamc. From the procmailrc man page:
|
|
|
|
DROPPRIVS If set to `yes' procmail will drop all privileges
|
|
it might have had (suid or sgid). This is only
|
|
useful if you want to guarantee that the bottom
|
|
half of the /etc/procmailrc file is executed on
|
|
behalf of the recipient.
|
|
|
|
|
|
I hope that helps, and I also hope it's right!

|
| Hi All,
|
|
|
|
|
| I am running SpamAssassin 2.41 with procmail as my local delivery agent
|
|
| with sendmail. I use spamc/spamd so that it runs site-wide from
|
|
| /etc/procmailrc.
|
|
|
|
|
| spamd is run as root with the flags "-d -a -c", and spamc isn't run with
|
|
| any flags.
|
|
|
|
|
| When I was testing the program, I deployed spamc from my personal
|
|
| ~/.procmailrc file, my ~/.spamassassin/user_prefs file was read each time.
|
|
| I can see this because I have a non-default "required_hits" value which
|
|
| gets reported in every e-mail on the "X-Spam-Status" line.
|
|
|
|
|
| Now that I run spamc from the global /etc/procmailrc file, my
|
|
| ~/.spamassassin/user_prefs file is no longer being read or processed from
|
|
| e-mails from outside computers. The "required_hits" value gets set back
|
|
| to the one in /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf. However, if I send local
|
|
| e-mail, my user_prefs file is read and processed correctly.
|
|
|
|
|
| Does anyone know how to fix this problem? if this is a spamassassin or
|
|
| procmail bug?
|
|
|
|
|
| Thanks,
|
|
|
|
|
