:*****  Plugin leaks (86.2 confidence) suggests  ******************************
:
:If you want to ignore esmtp trying to read access the mail file, because you believe it should not need this access.
:Then you should report this as a bug.  
:You can generate a local policy module to dontaudit this access.
:Do
:# grep /usr/bin/esmtp /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -D -M mypol
:# semodule -i mypol.pp

:*****  Plugin catchall (14.7 confidence) suggests  ***************************
:
:If you believe that esmtp should be allowed read access on the mail file by default.
:Then you should report this as a bug.
:You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.
:Do
:allow this access for now by executing:
:# grep esmtp /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
:# semodule -i mypol.pp

Comment 1 Miroslav Grepl 2012-06-04 10:04:46 UTC
If you execute

$ chcon -R -t mail_home_t /root/.esmtp_queue

Does it work then?
