If you run spamassassin in daemon mode it drops root priviledges and run as nobody. So you need: chmod o+x /root chown .nobody /root/.spamassassin chmod 770 /root/.spamassassin Or better - use onother directory for spamassassin config files. -- Milan Kerslager E-mail: milan.kerslager at pslib.cz WWW: http://www.pslib.cz/ke/
