I am running a recently compiled version of Procmail 3.22 on SCO OpenServer
5.0.6j, primarily installed to run my version of Sendmail 8.12.8 using Spam
Assassin 2.55 to mark messages and dispose of them properly.

The implementation is working great for everything I have tested so far and
I would like to be able to expand things now for my small (50 users) client
base, but first I have a general permissions question I'm hoping someone
here can help with.

I believe my problem to be related mainly to Procmail and I realize this is
a discussion list for SpamAssassin. My hope is that someone familiar with
both
can help, otherwise I will be happy to post elsewhere as suggested.

When I set write permissions as instructed by Procmail docs, on the
directory where my test setup is located:

drwxr-xr-x  21 kevin    group      16896 Jul 24 11:34 kevin

things work as they are advertised with Procmail, which is great.

The permissions setting disallows other programs and functions from working
properly however (specifically, I have a program 'Faximum' which writes to
the
user directory when my clients send quotes out, another application uses the
user's
directory to queue temporary files, etc.) and I would like to know if
Procmail can be
setup to work with directory permissions as:

drwxrwxrwx  21 kevin    group      16896 Jul 24 11:34 kevin

I understand this isn't preferrable, but I am unsure how I can implement the
Procmail/SpamAssassin combination while otherwise continuing to use my
legacy applications.

I have read the relevant FAQs, etc. but don't see anything relating to this
question.

I appreciate any assistance.
