Hi,
I found using -u option with spamd does not work on my box. Current
spamd uses changing euid/uid like this:
$> = $uuid; # effective uid
$< = $uuid; # real uid. we now cannot setuid anymore
But changing effective uid from root to specified user causes
impossible to change real uid lator.
The problem of this is, when forked spamd child finishes first
process, effective uid is back to root, rather than keeping specified
user id.
On my box, this patch seems to work fine. How about adding this
patch? (and 3.0.2 was released, btw).
