(specifically, I have a program 'Faximum' which writes to the user directory when my clients send quotes out, another application uses the user's directory to queue temporary files, etc.) and I would like to know if Procmail can be setup to work with directory permissions as:
drwxrwxrwx 21 kevin group 16896 Jul 24 11:34 kevin
Rather than try to make procmail work with insanely dangerous permsissions, why not make the home directories group writable, instead of world writable, and then run faximum as that GID?
ie: drwxrwxr_x 21 kevin group 16896 Jul 24 11:34 kevin
and then exec faximum as a user who is a member of "group".
It's still sub-optimal, but at least you're not doing something quite as foolish as having world-writable home directories.
Another idea would probably be for faximum to run as root and use those permissions to access user's home directories.
