      @ashceryth thanks for your reponse and hints.
      Here is the suggested output:

      $ /var/lib/kopano/spamd/spam# ls -la
      total 8
      drwxr-xr-x 2 kopano kopano 4096 Jan 12 17:05 .
      drwxr-xr-x 4 kopano kopano 4096 Dec 27 10:32 ..

        Well, at the moment your spam folder is empty. Normally the .eml files get deleted after learning by inotify-spamlearn. However, according to your log from above it wasn’t possible to remove them because of permission issues:

        @BMWfan said in Define ham and spam for spamassassin:

        Jan 12 16:21:00 Servername inotify-spamlearn.py[7501]:   File "/usr/local/sbin/inotify-spamlearn.py", line 43, in process
        Jan 12 16:21:00 Servername inotify-spamlearn.py[7501]:     os.remove(filename)
        Jan 12 16:21:00 Servername inotify-spamlearn.py[7501]: PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/var/lib/kopano/spamd/spam/A5D6C47FA96743C1B2DA0FE7203DA793.eml'
        

        That’s why I’m asking. Would be interesting to see the permissions of the .eml files themselves.

          @ashceryth i stopped in the inotify-spamlearn service and here is the suggested output:

          $ /var/lib/kopano/spamd/spam# ls -la

          drwxr-xr-x 2 kopano kopano 4096 Jan 14 20:39 .

            The reason for the permission error messages is that your spam directory is not writable for the group. Without write permissions the .eml files cannot be removed by inotify-spamlearn running as amavis (member of kopano group).

            Just run chmod g+w /var/lib/kopano/spamd/spam as well as chmod g+w /var/lib/kopano/spamd/ham and it should be working.

            P.S. Having the .eml files world read and writable seems no to be optimal :-)

              @ashceryth but inotify-spamlearn removes them already. I stopped only the process thats why i could send you the commandline output.

                Hm, that’s strange. The log messages indicate that the files can’t be removed. Are you sure inotify-spamlearn is currently running as amavis? Are you still getting the errors?

                  @ashceryth sorry. You are right. I’ve executed now the two suggested lines.

                  chmod g+w /var/lib/kopano/spamd/ham
                  chmod g+w /var/lib/kopano/spamd/ham
                  

                  Depending on this failures

                  i executed the following:

                  cd /var/lib/
                  chmod -R 777 spamassassin
                  

                  The kopano-spamd sa_group is nevertheless kopano and the inotify-spamlearn service is running as amavis user and amavis group. But it seems to work:

                  I want to let inotify-spamlearn log into the /var/log/kopano/spamd.log file, that’s why i changed in /etc/kopano/inotify-spamlearn.cfg this line:

                  # empty means log to console, use journalctl to read the logs when run from systemd service
                  logfile = /var/log/kopano/spamd.log
                  

                  I put amavis in the kopano group with gpasswd -a amavis kopano but it’s still not functioning:

                    Hi

                    @BMWfan said in Define ham and spam for spamassassin:

                    cd /var/lib/
                    chmod -R 777 spamassassin
                    

                    Every time you do this a puppy dies. In my humble opinion setting permissions to 777 is an absolute no-no. Your command makes the directory and everything below world read and writable. Are you sure you want that? :-)

                    do you have a idea how i could fix this?

                    The group has no write permission on the log file.

                    chmod g+w spamd.log

                      @ashceryth thanks for your help and your honestly opinion.
                      now, the inotifty-spamlearn log entries are in the /var/log/kopano/spamd.log

                      I checked the rights before i set chmod 777:

                      /var/lib/spamassassin# ls -la
                      total 24
                      drwxr-xr-x  6 debian-spamd debian-spamd 4096 Jan  8 20:05 .
                      drwxr-xr-x 50 root         root         4096 Jan  5 20:06 ..
                      drwx------  3 debian-spamd debian-spamd 4096 Dec 20 14:00 .spamassassin
                      drwxr-xr-x  6 debian-spamd debian-spamd 4096 Jan 15 03:04 3.004002
                      -rw-r--r--  1 root         root            0 Jan  8 19:55 bayes
                      drwxr-xr-x  3 debian-spamd debian-spamd 4096 Dec 20 14:01 compiled
                      drwx------  3 debian-spamd debian-spamd 4096 Dec 20 14:00 sa-update-keys
                      

                      I set now all rights back to this ^^.
                      How and where could i set the permission that a file like in this example called bayes.lock.server.server.de.19887 under /var/lib/spamassassin/ has to be created by a user (amavis) which is in the same group but not the owner of this folder in which the file has to be created? I think the name of the file is dynamic assigned why i can not create a file via touch and assign this file the needed rights.

                        Hi @BMWfan

                        The directory is owned by user and group debian-spamd. As I am not using Amavis/SpamAssassin I cannot check myself - but is user amavis member of group debian-spamd? If that’s the case you just have to fix the group permissions. However, I suggest not to mess too much with permissions.

                          Took a while to figure out the right settings for my debian9 …
                          But now all works as expected.

                          My config for inotify-spamlearn:

                          in /etc/systemd/inotify-spamlearn.service set

                          run_as_group = amavis
                          

                          now set the rights for spam and ham folders

                          chown -R kopano:amavis /var/lib/kopano/spamd
                          

                          and in order to delete the learned mails it’s neccessary that group amavis has the rights to delete the learned mails

                          chmod g+w /var/lib/kopano/spamd/spam
                          chmod g+w /var/lib/kopano/spamd/ham
                          

                          finally we need to reload the daemons for systemctl

                          systemctl daemons-reload
                          

                          and restart the service inotify-spamlearn

                          systemctl restart inotify-spamlearn
                          

                          that’s all ;)

                            Thank you for the info.

                            chown -R kopano:amavis /var/lib/kopano/spamd
                            and
                            chmod g+w /var/lib/kopano/spamd/spam
                            chmod g+w /var/lib/kopano/spamd/ham

                            in one liner :
                            install -o kopano -g amavis -m 2770 -d /var/lib/kopano/spamd -d /var/lib/kopano/spamd/spam -d /var/lib/kopano/spamd/ham

                            Does the “World” need read access in the spamd folder ?
