plugin: eval failed: bayes.mutex: Permission denied

[renatoandrade]

Hello guys, I have a problem that has generated an error message in the log /var/log/maillog

plugin: eval failed: bayes: (in learn) locker: safe_lock: cannot create lockfile /var/spool/mqueue/.spamassassin/bayes.mutex: Permission denied

anyone out there know how to fix this? I've tried permissions 0777 but did not work.

Make sure the ownership of /var/spool/mqueue/.spamassassin/ and its contents are all mailnull:mail. The permissions of the directory should be 0700 and the files within it should be 0600.

Regards,
Sarah

Sarah I have the same problem and mine are set correctly. Can you suggest anything else?
