So it is perfectly > reasonable to have procmail not setuid on a bo system, which is what I did. Does sendmail uses procmail without checking it is suid-root? If so, I think I agree with Herbert Xu. There should be nothing wrong in changing procmail permissions as long as it is *not* working as an MDA (other than I don't think it is a good idea). procmail supports suidmanager, so if you want to change permissions, you should be allowed to do so. Herbert should not be blamed for changing the permissions of procmail while it was *not* an MDA but just a mail filter. IMHO, sendmail should not automatically switch from deliver to procmail without checking that procmail default permissions have not been changed. Does sendmail do that? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.3ia Charset: latin1 iQCVAgUBNYeY/SqK7IlOjMLFAQE7fAP/ZBzmT4AMOnQN0/nD/hE4Ly7vRpobPRvE yIkDp/VdUgwy4OoAWDnt63JWUlxOHpACPVIMaSFz2+0wJ+fVzqNcRiB/tyIHQir5 7pESQIwKbk+smhZ0JoO/7p6rQu8wPh10fffmKQUKkvAoJARLiaSlv4fxF6hqJ7UT uUYYijPXhDE= =gSlI -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
