Hi All,
I have a new postfix configuration (which is actually a migration from Sendmail
running on Debian Lenny with Postfix 2.5.5) where the user wishes to enable
vacation messages.
We wish to use the 'vacation' utility which is configurable through
Squirrelmail, however I've noticed a strange phenomenon.
When the vacation program tries to send out the away message to the sender, it
attempts to invoke postdrop and this results in the logs showing:
mail_queue_enter: create file maildrop/684525.5891: Permission denied
Postdrop is in fact running as the local Linux user (this machine is running
many virtual domains) to which the mail is destined - obviously this user does
not have access to the /var/spool/postfix/maildrop directory which has the
following permissions:
drwx-wx--- 2 postfix postdrop 4096 2010-11-15 16:52
/var/spool/postfix/maildrop
Does anyone know how I might get vacation to work in this way?
Many thanks,
Jonathan
