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.
Maybe the spamd user isn't in use. I know it exists in /etc/passwd (was
created by the port), but I just assumed that the following log messages
were coming from the spamd process which was being run as the spamd
user....
Sep 9 18:56:23 relay3 spamd[491]: razor2 check skipped: No such file or
directory Can't read conf file: /var/amavis/.razor/razor-agent.conf
Sep 9 18:57:58 relay3 spamd[490]: razor2 check skipped: No such file or
directory Can't read conf file: /var/amavis/.razor/razor-agent.conf
Sep 9 19:03:02 relay3 spamd[553]: razor2 check skipped: No such file or
directory Can't read conf file: /var/amavis/.razor/razor-agent.conf
Otherwise, why wouldn't it be able to access the file? Below is proof
that something is up....
relay1# sudo -H -u vscan head -1 /var/amavis/.razor/razor-agent.conf
#
relay1# sudo -H -u spamd head -1 /var/amavis/.razor/razor-agent.conf
head: /var/amavis/.razor/razor-agent.conf: Permission denied
The vscan user can access the file fine, while the spamd user can't....
Is something up with the port thats calling spamd as the spamd user?

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.
