if you use the -u option on spamd when you start it you can specify the username it will run as. By default, it runs a root and does a setuid() call to the user who invokes spamc. I use Red Hat and the init script that comes with spamd to start it. I just added "-u mail" (mail is me sendmail user) in the script and now it runs a mail user.
I still have other problems though, as it doesn't add the header to my mail either (in fact my mail doesn't even get delivered after being processed by spamc) AHA Lists wrote: >I got spamd running as root, I have spamc being called in procmail.
