files in SpamAssassin-Temp

[Richard Mealing]

Hi Steve,

I've been trying to figure out what permissions I should have set on my incoming queue dir. I'm running mailscanner as root and I upgraded to the latest version, but since then I am getting errors with tnef and there are lots of tnef files in my queue dir /var/spool/mqueue.in

I have this set on my machine - 

Incoming Queue Dir = /var/spool/mqueue.in
Outgoing Queue Dir = /var/spool/mqueue
Incoming Work Dir = /tmpfs
Incoming Work User = clamav
Incoming Work Group = clamav
Incoming Work Permissions = 0640

Since upgrading to version MailScanner-4.84.5_2 I'm seeing all of this - 

/var/spool/mqueue.in]# ls -l
drwx------  2 root  wheel      512 Apr 26 13:17 tnefz8dqx2
drwx------  2 root  wheel      512 Apr 26 11:36 tnefzAiQ6p
drwx------  2 root  wheel      512 Apr 27 09:51 tnefzEgotO
drwx------  2 root  wheel      512 Apr 25 15:36 tnefzJmcCy

drwx------  2 root  wheel      512 Apr 25 16:25 tnefzuKuOS

drwx------  2 root  wheel      512 Apr 26 14:19 tnefzwrjOI


/var/spool]# ls -l
drwxr-xr-x  676 root   wheel     121344 Apr 27 11:47 mqueue.in


Not sure what's happening at the moment but I'm still playing with the permissions. I just keep seeing Clamd::ERROR:: lstat() failed: Permission denied. ERROR :: ./q3RAbE8r059638/tnefZqlqTE etc etc.


I've always used the tnef expander program with maxsize=100000000

I think the only difference between us if you don't use tmpfs.?

I'm wondering how all of this is supposed to be set up for the Incoming stuff.

I've got MS running as root. I'm using the clamd virus scanner. I don't think MailWatch comes into play here. I've got the following set:

Incoming Work User = clamav
Incoming Work Group = clamav
Incoming Work Permissions = 0640

All seems to be working well, with the exception of files in /var/spool/MailScanner/incoming/SpamAssassin-Temp, where I get a lot of files named MailScanner.XXXXXX that never go away. They're all 0 length and owned by root.root and permissions 400.

The directory itself, var/spool/MailScanner/incoming/SpamAssassin-Temp,
is owned by root.clamav, and permission 700.

Is my "Incoming Work User" set improperly, or can anyone think of something else I might have misconfigured?

Thanks

steve campbell
