Thanks a lot for your help, I really appreciate it.

I did some googling and it looks like Red Hat/Fedora has changed the way
they package the SELinux ruleset source for FC5. It looks like you need
the source RPM for selinux-policy-targeted instead of how they packaged
things for FC4 and earlier with a separate package called
selinux-policy-targeted-sources. I guess it makes sense to just move
the source to the source RPM instead of having a separate "sources"
package; just confusing for those of us who got used to doing things the
other way.
Here's a link to the source RPM but you should also be able to get it
just using your favorite flavor of yum.
ftp://ftp.pbone.net/mirror/download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/5/SRPMS/selinux-policy-2.2.38-1.fc5.src.rpm
This file contains:
[dave@bend ~/rpm]# rpm -qlp selinux-policy-2.2.38-1.fc5.src.rpm
Makefile.devel
booleans-mls.conf
booleans-strict.conf
booleans-targeted.conf
modules-mls.conf
modules-strict.conf
modules-targeted.conf
policy-20060505.patch
policygentool
selinux-policy.spec
serefpolicy-2.2.38.tgz
setrans-mls.conf
setrans-strict.conf
setrans-targeted.conf
I'm *guessing* you'll need to unpack serefpolicy-2.2.38.tgz in an
appropriate location and then add the local policy rules as I described
earlier. Hopefully, the link from one of the other responses will
provide enough information about how to make a custom policy for FC5
although "policygentool" sounds like a likely suspect.
You don't need anything particularly complicated to do local policy
changes in FC5 (it's much easier than in FC4 IMHO).
See:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SELinux/LoadableModules/Audit2allow
for example.
However, given that the OP's system is not delivering mail from cron,
which is a pretty basic operation, I think the problem is one with the
existing policy or with labelling rather than something that should just
be allowed by local policy. I can't help much myself because I use
sendmail and postfix is a mystery to me. That is why I referred the OP
to fedora-selinux-list. The list is relatively quiet at weekends but
might get more helpful soon.
Paul.
