Hi folks,

I found this link that had a similar (but not identical) problem:

http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-selinux-list/2004-December/msg00033.html

O/S: Fedora Core5
Mail server: Postfix
SELinux: Enabled.

Basically, the problem is this. When I try to send E-Mail from a Python script, Postfix fails. In the maillog file, I see:

Apr 24 13:53:57 miffy postfix/pickup[29094]: warning: maildrop/2104D276B2A: Permission denied

In messages, I see:

Apr 24 13:57:58 miffy kernel: audit(1145912278.348:688): avc: denied { getattr } for pid=29094 comm="pickup" name="2104D276B2A" dev=sda3 ino=2583338 scontext=root:system_r:postfix_pickup_t:s0 tcontext=root:object_r:postfix_spool_t:s0 tclass=file

If I set SELinux to permissive mode, it works fine.

Is this an SELinux policy problem? How can I go about fixing this? I'd prefer to run with SELinux enabled ...

# grep postfix_spool /var/log/message | audit2allow -M postfixpickup
# semodule -i postfixpickup.pp

Will fix it for now.

I will update policy to allow searching of this directory

   Thanks!
