Thanks Dallman, I do have the DROPPRIVS=yes set in procmailrc. I thought
that would do it. I am calling procmail from postfix using two lines in
master.cf:
procmail unix - n n - - pipe
flags=R user=nobody argv=/usr/bin/procmail -t -m /etc/procmailrc
$(sender) ${recipient} ${user}
It seems that whenever a new user is added the /var/mail/username file is
created but the ownership will always be nobody
-rw------- 1 nobody mail 2885 Mar 6 02:51 username
No matter what "phantom" user I use it procmail assigns ownership to the
phantom user.
I want all incoming mail to be processed by spamassassin prior to delivery.
I think that this would be appropriate at the /etc/procmailrc level. My
rcfile looks like:
SHELL=/bin/sh
LOGFILE=/var/log/procmail # this can be deleted after testing
VERBOSE=yes
USER=$3
HOME=/Users/$USER
DROPPRIVS=yes
:0fiw
| spamc # call Spamassassin
INCLUDERC=$HOME/.procmailrc # allow users to create their own recipes
I think that this include must be at the end of the script (if
needed).

/dev/null

Don't need to lock null

* ^TO_username*
/var/mail/username
1. Here you need the locker.
2. Do you have only one user and his/her name `username' ?
:0:
* $ ^TO_$LOGNAME
/var/mail/$LOGNAME
Bye,
Udi
Can anyone see where I am going wrong? Thanks in advance!

Use
DROPPRIVS=yes
as described in the fine manual pages, or let the /etc/procmailrc
end and let the user's own .procmailrc take over (automatically)
for delivery.
