I'm seeing an interaction in FC4 between a mailbox file on an NFS
server, emacs's movemail and (I presume) selinux. (This is with all
the current rpm updates.)
When I try getting my mail I see this error message from inside emacs:
movemail: Input/output error for /home/wolfgang/Mailbox
movemail exited with code 1
Here is what the context looks like on the NFS-ed mailbox along with
what root's local mailbox looks like:
$ ll --lcontext /var/mail/root /home/wolfgang/Mailbox
2.0K -rw------- 1 wolfgang wsrcc 1.4K Jul 5 11:28 /home/wolfgang/Mailbox
8.0K -rw------- 1 system_u:object_r:mail_spool_t root root 631 Jul 5 11:31 /var/mail/root
I assume the missing context stuff on the Mailbox file is causing
problems. What is the correct way to deal with this? Turning off
selinux?
