Is MailScanner using spam.assassin.prefs.conf?

I got it fixed. The new installer creates a group called mtagroup and it automatically adds system users it finds like mail, clamav, postfix, exim, etc. The distro will now include this:

Incoming Work Group = mtagroup

Incoming Work Permissions = 0660

By default:

chown mail:mtagroup /var/spool/MailScanner/incoming
chmod 0750 /var/spool/MailScanner/incoming


This ensures that all the processes involved have access in a default install without trashing the security of /var/spool/MailScanner/incoming
