Jun 6 17:29 /var/spool/amavis This conflicts with other av scanners, like sophie. They need to access the files in /var/spool/amavis but doesn't run as the user vscan but in the group vscan.

From the INSTALL file in the amavisd-new sourceball: "Check or set the ownership and protection of the directories to be readable and writable by the chosen UID, and not writable by other non-privileged users; chown -R amavis:amavis /var/amavis chmod -R 750 /var/amavis "

I suggest to change the rights to 750 and make the group vscan, too. It will look like: drwxr-x--- 8 vscan vscan 4096 4. Jun 17:29 /var/spool/amavis Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. manually change permissons: # chgrp vscan /var/spool/amavis/ 2. # chmod 750 /var/spool/amavis/ 3. # ls -ld /var/spool/amavis/ drwxr-x--- 8 vscan vscan 4096 4.
