I have a lot of avc messages in my log file indicating a problem with
spamassassin/mqueue.
I am running FC6 with a standard installation and don't know why there
is a problem with the directory /var/spool/mqueue.
$ ls -Zd mqueue
drwx------ root mail system_u:object_r:mqueue_spool_t mqueue/
Do I need to change the context for this directory?
Below are some of the messages from my log file:
Nov 8 23:02:32 kepler kernel: audit(1163044952.697:127322): avc:

Does procmail need to read this directory?
Does procmail need to be able to write this directory?
I honestly don't know. I haven't done any customization to procmail and
until I saw these messages I wasn't even aware of the existence of the
directory.
The directory itself is empty but procmail itself must be using the
mqueue directory internally or there wouldn't be these messages.
Thanks
