Hi,

I would love to have an extra option '--check-socket-user' or similar
and let spamd check(or solely use) the uid of the spamc process but
ignoring any false"-u someotheruser" settings.

I have heard from one of our sys-admins the following:
If  $client is a socket that has been generated with
'IO::Socket::UNIX->new()' , then ' ($pid, $uid, $gid) = unpack("LLL",
$client->sockopt(17));'  should provide the necessary informations.

Anybody can tell if there is a chance? If you think this is a stupid
idea I like to get some reasons so I can tell my users. ;)

Thx,
Hans

P.S.: Our users dont like the idea of user_prefs, autowhitelist* and
bayes* being used by other users since their might be a slight chance of
misuse.
