Hi all,
I am using procmail to pre-process messages before they hit Mailman.
I doing it the way it is suggested in the FAQ
(spamassassin+mailman). I am unsure what the permissions and
ownerships for the procmailrc should be. At the moment the file is
world readable and owned by root.mailman. If i change the ownership
to mailman.mailman, I get the following error:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors -----
"|/usr/bin/procmail -m MAILMAN=list /var/mailman/filters/procmailrc"
(reason: Can't create output)
(expanded from: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>)
----- Transcript of session follows -----
procmail: Suspicious rcfile "/var/mailman/filters/procmailrc"
procmail: Couldn't read "/var/mailman/filters/procmailrc"
550 5.0.0 "|/usr/bin/procmail -m MAILMAN=list /var/mailman/filters/procmailrc"...
Can't create output
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
I don't understand why the rcfile should be suspicious, or that it
should be unreadable (it is world readable). The procmail I think
runs as user "mail". Should I then chown procmailrc to mail.mail?
As also the files and mboxes procmail writes to?
Your suggestions and comments are very welcome. I am using Mailman
2.1.1 on a Redhat 9 box. Procmail 3.22.
