ConfigServer Community Forum

Hi there,
I am trying to setup a new MailScanner server, and i seem to be having an issue. Nothing shows up in the Recent Messages section.

Here is the output of: MailScanner --lint:

I am thinking it is a permission issue? i checked the permissions on the incoming and quarantine folders.

Incoming

drwxrwx--- 10 postfix postfix 4096 2019-05-31 08:48 .
drwxrwx--- 6 postfix postfix 4096 2012-11-16 15:00 ..

drwxrwx--- 2 postfix postfix 4096 2019-05-31 08:48 SpamAssassin-Temp

Quarantine
drwxrwx--- 2 postfix postfix 4096 2008-05-08 18:30 .
drwxrwx--- 6 postfix postfix 4096 2012-11-16 15:00 ..

So what am i missing here? both the user and group to be used are set to postfix in my confg file.

Please help.

Thank you

and that MailScanner is finding them correctly via its virus.scanners.conf.
