Hi, I'm using Centos 4.4 with: mimedefang.org + spamassassin.org Mimedefang(MD) is a perl program that calls SpamAssassin(SA) perl module. The problem I'm getting is that from update 4.4, SA does not seems to find the $HOME variable only when it is called during system boot. If you later login as root and run: $ service mimedefang restart then SA does indeed find the $HOME variable I checked the /etc/init.d/mimedefang file and the chain of commands seems to be this: /etc/init.d/mimedefang -> daemon function from /etc/init.d/function -> /sbin/runuser SpamAssassin perl module is called from the mimedefang perl program. I'm thinking that /sbin/runuser is the root cause of the problem. My questions are: - does /sbin/runuser set the $HOME at boot time? - should /sbin/runuser be called with the -l option?
