In a purely virtual user setup does qmail-lspawn need to be root? All of my mail and maildirs are owned by qmailv. Is there a way I could reconfigure my qmail-lspawn to not run as root? > IMHO it would be the best to create a tool that can be used as programm > delivery in qmail-local even if we have to redo a lookup. > > I also think that mail filtering is not part of the mta (more a mda, mua > thing) so filtering is something that should be done in qmail-local. Correct, I use qmail-scanner to handle virus scanning and spam assassin tagging. My spam assassin is setup to handle per user whitelist/blacklists which are stored in a MySQL database. -Matt -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Matthew S.
