I had a similar problem some time ago. I switched the spamd uid from "root"
to "spamd". But spamd is the one who does the learing stuff. So he
wants to be able to enter $HOME. Because every of my users has its
own uid, I did the following:
PATH OWNER PERMISSIONS
$HOME uid:users 710
$HOME/.spamassassin/ spamd:users 700
$HOME/.maildir/ uid:users 700
spamd can read/write the users bayes database, while the user is the only
person, who is able to access ".maildir/".
I don't know if there is a better way.
Bye,
Aiko
