Hello ,

In the mailscanner frontend on the mailscanner configuration page section "incoming work dir settings"
The installer creates a group on your system called "mtagroup"
and adds found users from mail, clamav, postfix, exim, etc
to that group. This combined with Incoming Work Permissions
of 0660 allows file access without errors such as the
infamous ClamAV ./lstat() error.
however the group "mtagroup" does not exist on my server

Code: Select all

grep 'mtagroup' /etc/group
does not return anything so what now :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused:

The mtagroup does not need to exist, you can disregard that setting.
