What user/group does your mta run as?

why not start the spfd with su or some other program of your choice to get
it to run as a particular group/user. (probably not a good idea to run it as
root!).

Same issue here...running exim as mailnull...

# su mailnull -c spfd -path=/tmp/spfd
This account is currently not available.

I suppose that running spfd then subsequently chown-ing it to mailnull should work, but then it's still running as root.
