mkdir permission problem with SpamAssassin

[Matt Kettler]

What is the user exim's home directory? sounds like exim has a home dir of
"no" in /etc/passwd.

Note that spamassassin stores it's AWL information in ~/.spamassassin/. It
also reads user_prefs there. Run SA as a user that has a home dir, or
disable the AWL ( mailscanner calls SA, so you'll have to change this in
mailscanner's conf.)
