That shows no matches.  "ausearch -m avc" shows a lot of messages, the
last one being:


time->Mon Nov  5 21:34:33 2012

There don't seem to be any messages mentioning movemail: "ausearch -m
all |grep movemail" returns nothing.  I can't try it again atm because I
moved the installation to a different disk and didn't keep /usr/local
where the self-compiled emacs was installed.  The move caused more
problems with rights and I better fix those first ...
