Hi there

Actually the documentation is correct. As
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-scanner-queue.pl is setuid qscand, running
"setuidgid qmaild xxxxx" works fine. It represents a "full test" -
emulating what happens when qmail-smtpd (which runs as qmaild) calls
qmail-scanner.

The presence of those "root" files makes me think you've got a
half-installed Q-S. Remove the lot and do it again. End of the day, the
/var/spool/qscan directory tree is meant to be owned by "qscand"...
