Here my FuzzyOCR runs with spamd (the daemon of spamassassin) and the default user that run it is the user spamd

I might add that spamc is called from procmail, so it runs with the permissions of the user receiving the message.

Than you can set the > permissions straight. I can see the problem now. The file is written by username:username because the primary group in debian is set to "username" - the group is not "users" as I'd like it to be (as it is on my gentoo box). I could fix this up by making "users" the primary group for all users, but that might cause other problems. AFAICS I'll need to make the hash db chmod 666. Presumably if its not executable it shouldn't be a security risk?? > And making db files executable does noet seem like such a good idea to me. > Use CHMOD 664 or 660. Point taken.
