According to http://www.ijs.si/software/amavisd/INSTALL.txt
chmod -R 750 /var/amavis

Not sure, but you may need execute permissions to use razor-agent.conf

The question is, why is spamd in use? Typically SpamAssassin is called
by amavisd-new and therefore only your vscan user would use
 /var/amavis/.razor/razor-agent.conf.

The instructions to place razor_config /var/amavis/.razor/razor-agent.conf
in local.cf assume the only users that use those razor files are 'root'
and 'vscan'. This setting is optional. If other users are involved, it
may be best to give them their own razor files (the .razor directory
and files copied to the user's home directory may suffice; chown of
course), and then remove this setting in local.cf. I would assume
it's best to not allow anyone other than 'root' and 'vscan' access
to anything in the /var/amavis directory.
