Problem with procmail on one local account.

2004-01-15 11:47:11
Yellow Dog Linux 3.0 with Postfix 1.1.11

Each of the users here has a .procmailrc that has been copied to the /home dir from a "master" copy that was initially created, and one particular user on this system is having a fit trying to receive mail....

...it looks like procmail is having a hard time writing to a particular directory, but I don't know anything about procmail to know what it may be.

Here's a log snip:

Jan 15 13:13:52 atchisonkansas postfix/smtpd[17799]: connect from unknown[10.1.1.34] Jan 15 13:13:52 atchisonkansas postfix/smtpd[17799]: 62FBE1B8229: client=unknown[10.1.1.34] Jan 15 13:13:52 atchisonkansas postfix/cleanup[17800]: 62FBE1B8229: message-id=<BC2C347E(_dot_)2185%ismgr(_at_)atchisonkansas(_dot_)net> Jan 15 13:13:52 atchisonkansas postfix/nqmgr[17457]: 62FBE1B8229: from=<ismgr(_at_)atchisonkansas(_dot_)net>, size=595, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Jan 15 12:13:52 atchisonkansas ipop3d[17804]: pop3 service init from 10.1.1.33 Jan 15 12:13:52 atchisonkansas postfix/local[17801]: 62FBE1B8229: to=<postfix(_at_)atchisonkansas(_dot_)net>, relay=local, delay=0, status=deferred (temporary failure. Command output: procmail: Couldn't create "/var/spool/mail/postfix" )

What does it mean when procmail says "Couldn't create /var/spool/mail/postfix"?

Thanks!

Chris
