I was watching my maillog for another reason and noticed the error below.
SpamAssassin appears to be working properly in spite of the error, but I'm
not sure what problems might be inherent in the problem. My bayes data is
in /var/.spamassassin, owner and group root, permissions 755. Should these
be different, e.g. spamd be the owner/group?? Thanks any specific help and
insights! I don't really understand the lock files at all. Here are the
pertinent log entries:
May 23 17:52:16 localhost spamd[8627]: bayes: lock: 8627 cannot create tmp
lockfile /var/.spamassassin/bayes.lock.Luke.8627 for
