RE: -u not working as I'd expect

only for multiple recipients, otherwise it uses what's before the @ in the 
e-mail address.
i think what you're looking for is the -- option of spamass-milter, which would 
pass arguments to spamc.  try this:
SM_EXTRA_FLAGS=' -u spam -r 6 -- -u spam'

Subject: -u not working as I'd expect


Howdy -

I am using spamass-milter-0.2.0+cvs-3 RPM I built from CVS about three days 
ago and SpamAssassin 3.0.0 on a Fedora Core 2 box.

In the spamass-milter start script I have

SM_EXTRA_FLAGS=' -u spam -r 6'

When I run ps I see:

spamass-milter -p /var/run/spamass.sock -f -u spam -r 6

If I read the man page correctly, the "-u spam" argument should make 
spamass-milter run as the user called spam, right?  Well, it isn't.  I see 
this in the logs:

Sep 27 14:53:23 filer spamd[25556]: handle_user: unable to find user 
'theresa'!
Sep 27 14:53:23 filer spamd[25556]: Still running as root: user not 
specified with -u, not found, or set to root.  Fall back to nobody.

Did I not RTFM correctly, or is this a bug?

Thanks!
