From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030529 Description of problem: spamassassin-spamc.rc does not use DROPPRIVS=yes and when INCLUDERC/etc/mail/spamassassin/spamassassin-spamc.rc is used in /etc/procmailrc it uses root to connect to spamd. Spamd is then falling back to nobody. This also causes that in this configuration auto-whitelist feature is not working. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): spamassassin-2.55-3 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. rpm -ivh spamassassin-2.55-3.i386.rpm 2. /etc/rc.d/init.d/spamassassin start 3. echo 'INCLUDERC=/etc/mail/spamassassin/spamassassin-spamc.rc' >> /etc/procmailrc 4. /usr/sbin/sendmail $LOGNAME@$(hostname) < /usr/share/doc/spamassassin-2.55/sample-nonspam.txt Actual Results: In /var/log/maillog: connection from localhost.localdomain [127.0.0.1] at port 1849 info: setuid to root succeeded Still running as root: user not specified with -u, not found, or set to root.

Based on the date this bug was created, it appears to have been reported against rawhide during the development of a Fedora release that is no longer maintained. In order to refocus our efforts as a project we are flagging all of the open bugs for releases which are no longer maintained. If this bug remains in NEEDINFO thirty (30) days from now, we will automatically close it. If you can reproduce this bug in a maintained Fedora version (7, 8, or rawhide), please change this bug to the respective version and change the status to ASSIGNED. (If you're unable to change the bug's version or status, add a comment to the bug and someone will change it for you.) Thanks for your help, and we apologize again that we haven't handled these issues to this point. The process we're following is outlined here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/F9CleanUp We will be following the process here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping to ensure this doesn't happen again.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 7 is nearing the end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stopmaintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 7. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longermaintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '7'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 7's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 7 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. If possible, it is recommended that you try the newest available Fedora distribution to see if your bug still exists. Please read the Release Notes for the newest Fedora distribution to make sure it will meet your needs: http://docs.fedoraproject.org/release-notes/ The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 7 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on June 13, 2008. Fedora 7 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
