Re: Spamassassin emails have wrong perms

I am hoping somebody can help me solve a problem I am having with procmail and spamassassin (specifically spamd). When spamassassin has marked a message as spam, it gets sorted to a Junk folder, but the problem is that it is owned by root:mail when it should be owned by the user. When this happens, dovecot will not serve the email to the user. I sort other emails into folders with simple matching rules and those work fine. Spamassassin is the only rule that is piped out to a program. Here is the relevant portion my procmailrc file: DROPPRIV=yes # Make this run as a normal user. If you need # root privileges for something, do it before # this line. # Send mail through spamassassin :0fw | spamc -u $LOGNAME # Now that we've tagged the spam, put in the appropriate folder :0 * ^X-Spam-Status: Yes .Junk/ I've tried taking the -u $LOGNAME portion out too and that doesn't work. Following is a maillog sample.
