Here are the permissions (I went back to owner qscand) [EMAIL PROTECTED] qmailscan]# ll quarantine-attachments.* -rw-rw-rw- 1 qscand nofiles 12288 Dec 18 10:33 quarantine-attachments.db -rw-rw---- 1 qscand qscand 4361 Dec 17 14:28 quarantine-attachments.txt Here's what the log shows now: (last few lines before the failure) Thu, 18 Dec 2003 18:16:47 +0200:7566: p_s: starting scan of directory "/var/spool/qmailscan/tmp/ns.arava.co.il10717642074617566"...
