Package: spamassassin
Version: 3.1.7-1
Followup-For: Bug #334829

Note that the user ''nobody'' has /nonexistant as a home directory.

There ought to be a way to get rid of this stuff in the logfiles.
I've read the FM, but there does not seem to be an obvious solution,
other than running spamd as a real user, rather than as nobody
(and I'd prefer not to do that for security reasons).
((OK, I suppose I could create a user with no permissions just for spamd...))
