Hi Jerry,

I did this but same issue with the postfix user id.

Probably permissions. Fix them on those directories and then remove your Processing.db file from /var/spool/MailScanner. (Make sure you stop MailScanner first.)

chmod g+w /var/spool/MailScanner/*
chmod 0775 /var/spool/postfix/hold

I would suggest creating a group that has clamav and postfix as members and use that in your MailScanner settings. This prevents a lot of permissions issues. I use a group called mtagroup.

groupadd mtagroup
usermod -a -G mtagroup postfix
usermod -a -G mtagroup clamav
usermod -a -G mtagroup clam

(either clam or clamav depending on your distro and clam version)

chown postfix:mtagroup /var/spool/MailScanner
chown postfix:mtagroup /var/spool/MailScanner/incoming
chown postfix:mtagroup /var/spool/MailScanner/quarantine
chown postfix.mtagroup /var/spool/MailScanner/spamassassin
chown postfix:mtagroup /var/spool/postfix
chown postfix:mtagroup /var/spool/postfix/incoming
chown postfix:mtagroup /var/spool/postfix/hold

Start MailScanner running again.

Did I something wrong ?

I am running 2 childs

[root at demo3 hold]# ls
3484  3519

By running the mailq command I get those errors?

[root at demo3 ~]# date
Sat May  2 23:44:19 EDT 2015
[root at demo3 ~]# mailq
Mail queue is empty
[root at demo3 ~]#

May  2 23:44:27 demo3 postfix/showq[32579]: warning: hold/3484: uid 89: not a regular file

An postfix reload removes both files and then I get the next error …

[root at demo3 ~]# service postfix reload

Sat May  2 23:51:33 EDT 2015
[root at demo3 ~]# ls /var/spool/postfix/hold/
1036  1093

Did somebody get the same result – or my configuration is wrong may there is a way to suppress the showq warnings?

Thank you,
mike
