Maybe you have reconfigured your system to use spamd instaed of the default spamsacan setup of ispconfig? Or you restored the files from a backup? With spamscan, these files are all owned by the system user that owns the email account, but your files are owned by root, so they must have been written by some kind of daemon or they had been copied from another instal without preserving permissions.
yes Yes probably the backup-restore , Will have to work on those, I will write a bash script to fix permissions, As before I have pleaded the case for clamd, (BTW changing it back did not change the issue at hand) BUT Please make it an installation option to switch to clamd, as clamd uses almost NO resources whereas clamscan does lock-up cpu to 100%, especailly on slow internet connections witch we have all over the world except US and Europe! Places like South Africa and other have those issues where the ISP's all cache traffic via transparent proxy and no one can do anything about it.
