 Posted: Fri Feb 23, 2007 7:13 pm Post subject: [SOLVED] Wrong permissions mail after procmail |
 |
|
If I filter my mail with procmail the mail isn't readable for users. It is for root. Procmailrc is started via fetchmailrc.
I tried adding:
| Code: | ETCRCS=/storage/mail/procmailrcs
INCLUDERC=/storage/mail/procmailrcs/ekoster
|
For the security issue, no luck
If I run "chmod -R 777 /home/ekoster/.maildir" after it is readable
What is wrong?
So how can I automate this rule after procmail is done (as a temporary solution)
UPDATE
I figured you can do something with dropprivs but I can't get that to work. I've the line dropprivs=yes but it still uses the root privileges. Does anyone know a solution how to get this right?

| Has this system ever worked properly in the past, or is this a fesh install? Something to try is to look at the config- perhaps it is trying to run as root when it should be trying to run as a dedicated user? If it has worked in the past, have you recently done a package update or run etc-update or revdep-rebuild? |

This is a fresh install. I'm starting fetchmail at startup. In my /etc/fetchmailrc is a addition to start procmail. It uses the procmailrc in /etc which is descibed as a global procmailrc file. I know it should be able to work for I read that on the net but never read how (yet).
| Code: | ETCRCS=/storage/mail/procmailrcs
INCLUDERC=/storage/mail/procmailrcs/ekoster
# Use maildir-style mailbox in user's home directory
MAILDIR_ROOT=/root/.maildir/
#MAILDIR_EKOSTER=/home/ekoster/.maildir/
#
## Begin recipes

:0
* ^To:.*mobile\@ddfdf\.net
$MAILDIR_ROOT
#:0
#* ^To:.*edgar\@dfdfdf\.net
#$MAILDIR_EKOSTER

This is the procmail |
