Hello, I've been running SA for about a year on this particular server, and I've never noticed it until today, but when using the -a flag with -c, SA is trying to create user preference files for users that don't exist.
I'm using qmail, vpopmail, and SA, and I've got a catchall setup. When sending an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED], SA is creating directories in /, as "/no such user [EMAIL PROTECTED]".
I'm having a somewhat similar problem. On our qmail/vpopmail setup, we are running Spam Assassin via spamd/spamc, and a short maildrop script is used for the SA-enabled domains to tag and deliver mail.
This works great, so far, but our mail logs are cluttered with perl errors:
Dec 16 00:39:12 webby spamd[12626]: Creating default_prefs [no such user qmailq@/.spamassassin/user_prefs]
Dec 16 00:39:12 webby spamd[12626]: Use of uninitialized value in string ne at /usr/local/share/perl/5.6.1/Mail/SpamAssassin.pm line 1295, <GEN22> line 2.
Dec 16 00:39:12 webby spamd[12626]: Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at /usr/local/share/perl/5.6.1/Mail/SpamAssassin.pm line 1296, <GEN22> line 2.
Dec 16 00:39:12 webby spamd[12626]: Oops! user_dirs don't match! 'no such user qmailq@' vs ''
Dec 16 00:39:12 webby spamd[12626]: Cannot write to no such user qmailq@/.spamassassin/user_prefs: No such file or directory
Dec 16 00:39:12 webby spamd[12626]: Couldn't create readable default_prefs for [no such user qmailq@/.spamassassin/user_prefs]
This seems to be for all virtual domains with catch-all in the .qmail-default file.
Our spamd is started with
/usr/local/bin/spamd -c -a -v -s mail -u vpopmail -A 127.0.0.1 -d -H /home/vpopmail
Any ideas?
