Description Robert Moskowitz 2013-01-31 15:05:20 UTC 
Description of problem:

The default directory for amavisd-new, /var/spool/amavis and subdirectories are created with permissions 700 instead of 750.  This results in clamd failing to place mail messages.  clamd is running under user clam which has been added to the amavis group.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

amavisd-new-2.6.4-2.el6.noarch

How reproducible:

Very.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install and configure MTA, amavis-new, clamd, etc.
2. run amavis test-message sample-spam=GTUBE-junk.txt
3. check /var/log/maillog and not error
  
Actual results:

Expected results:

No failed: Permissions denied

Additional info:

Manually changing permissions of /var/spool/amavis and its subdirs to 750 and restarting amavisd and clamd fixed the problem.  This should be the default permissions to allow daemons called by amavis-new to work here.
