Hi,
I am using fetchmail as root to collect emails.
fetchmail is launched by systemd through a fetchmail.service (see below)
The /etc/fetchmail.conf file contains a list as
poll mail.server.com with
interval 1
protocol imap port 993
username "user" password "pass" is name@xxxxxxxxxx
ssl
keep
;
As a result I have the following selinux messages (sealert below):
time->Sun Jan 11 13:07:33 2015

What can I do to have a more useful information to solve this problem? Actually this is the last AVC appearing in my logs and I want to solve it before changing the permissive mode to enforcing.

SELinux is preventing fetchmail from read access on the key Unknown.
***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests **************************
If you believe that fetchmail should be allowed read access on the Unknown key by default.
Then you should report this as a bug.
You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.
Do
allow this access for now by executing:
# grep fetchmail /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
# semodule -i mypol.pp
