> *Background*
> Spooling for messages is enabled for hooks that publish messages to Atlas. 
> This is available for hooks that choose to add the following properties:
> {code:java}
> atlas.hook.spool.enabled=true
> atlas.hook.spool.dir=/spool-dir{code}
> Once the hook is initialized, the directory is created. The user who creates 
> the directory will have read-write permissions to the spool directly.
> There are cases where the hook gets initialized with different users. When 
> that happen, the directory is accessible to the other user. This causes 
> initialization failure and the spooling functionality not to be available to 
> the other user.
> *Solution(s)*
> This problem can be circumvented by making the 2 users be part of the same 
> group that will allow for same directory to be present for multiple users. 
> Multi-user access is currently supported.
> For the scenario, where multiple users are not part of the same group, the 
> situation described above will come into play. 
> _Approach Used_
> **No directory exists, _User1_ first creates the directory specified in the 
> configuration.
> Directory exists, _User1_ has access to the directory and spooling is enabled.
> Directory exists, _User2_ does not have access to the directory. New 
> directory with username suffixed to the existing directory name is created. 
> The directory created for the user will be
>  
> {code:java}
> /spool-dir-User1 
> {code}
>
