I just upgraded postfix from 3.1.2 to 3.2.2. When I chown postfix of the
/var/spool/postfix/ tree I get these warnings:

# /etc/rc.d/rc.postfix start
postfix/postfix-script: warning: not owned by root: /var/spool/postfix/.
postfix/postfix-script: warning: not owned by root: /var/spool/postfix/pid
postfix/postfix-script: starting the Postfix mail system

  When I chown to root postfix will not start:

postsuper: fatal: scan_dir_push: open directory defer: Permission denied
postfix/postfix-script: fatal: Postfix integrity check failed!

  With the above warning postfix is obviously now running, but I would like
to understand why the warning is present.
