As I understand it, altering those values in default/spamass-milter
should be sufficient? Those have been changed for several days now.
Following a lead from elsewhere I have altered the owner to
spamass-milter:postfix and the socket permissions follow it in the file
manager. However, the PID file is being created with
spamass-milter:nogroup and I cannot find where to change it - and does
it matter in this case?
In System Monitor (task manager) I'm seeing (currently) 2 spamd
processes, 2 spamd-child and a spamass-milter. Is that reasonable?
I'm also seeing the following in the log for each email email...
spamd: connection from ::1 [::1]:55492 to port 783, fd 5
spamd: handle_user (getpwnam) unable to find user: 'admin'
spamd: still running as root: user not specified with -u, not found,
or set to root, falling back to nobody
spamd: processing message <message-id> for admin:65534
... where admin changes according to the target email address (eg james,
ebay etc) - I do not understand why line 2 is seeking user: admin.
Line 1 is using ipv6 - how can I force ipv4?
line 3 running as root - according to default/spamassassin it seems -u
is optional for spamd.pid and I'm not even sure that's what it is
referring to.
> communicates with spamd by localhost:783
How do I force that?
What I keep looking for (and fail to find) is a list of all actions I
need in order to set up spamass-milter - permissions, options, where and
what etc for ubuntu. Which is why I began this thread in the first place.
And why do all the other milters I'm using not have this difficulty. :(
