Package: exim4-config Version: 4.98.2-1 Severity: wishlist File: /etc/exim4/conf.d/transport/30_exim4-config_mail_spool
Dear Maintainer, I'd like to suggest to add "current_directory = /" to 30_exim4-config_mail_spool. Background: - https://github.com/Exim/exim/wiki/Q0423: check_local_user sets work-dir to $HOME - if $HOME is not accessible, mail_spool fails with "Permission denied: failed to chdir to /home/..." - in my opinion there is no need to chdir to /home/, if the mail is going to be delivered to /var/mail/ Notes: - 30_exim4-config_maildir_home has a hint about this "issue". - there is no hint in 30_exim4-config_mail_spool. -- Package-specific info: Exim version 4.98.2 #2 built 29-Mar-2025 12:22:55
