Hi guys/girls,
 
Thanks for your assistance with netqmail and qmail-scanner. Everything appears to be working nicely now.
One last couple of questions. For qmail-scanner, should spamd be running as root or should I perhaps run it as user "qscand".
Also is it normal to have the following in my /var/log/maillog:
Apr  7 02:30:53 mail spamd[17961]: handle_user: unable to find user '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'!
 
It would appear that qmail-scanner seems to be trying to run as the incoming email's recipient address ?
 

Hi

You can run spamd as hte user you want, there is no difference, maybe it is more  coherent run it as user 'spamd'. Have a look at this page:

<http://xoomer.virgilio.it/j.toribio/qmail-scanner/sa-alt.html#spamd>

The error you see is 'normal'... qmail-scanner call spamc with the option "-u [EMAIL PROTECTED]" that might work if you use spamd with sql for the users preferences, at least the FAQ said that.

You can ignore this error or in case you want a clean log you can edit qmail-scanner-queue.pl, search for the routine 'sub spamassassin' and coment the line:

#  $spamc_options="$spamc_options -u \"$cmdline_recip\"" if ($cmdline_recip ne "");
You should coment other lines, but this is enough...

Regards

Salvatore
