Aha! Yes, there is:

Obviously there is something wrong with the permissions on
~/.spamassassin.

$ ls -ldZ .spamassassin/
drwx------  darren   darren   user_u:object_r:user_home_t      .spamassassin/

$ ls -lZ .spamassassin/
-rw-------  darren   darren   user_u:object_r:user_home_t      auto-whitelist
-rw-------  darren   darren   user_u:object_r:user_home_t      bayes_seen
-rw-------  darren   darren   user_u:object_r:user_home_t      bayes_toks
-rw-rw-r--  darren   darren   user_u:object_r:user_home_t      old_bayes_seen
-rw-rw-r--  darren   darren   user_u:object_r:user_home_t      old_bayes_toks
-rw-r--r--  darren   darren   user_u:object_r:user_home_t      user_prefs

Given that maillog says that setuid to darren succeeded then I can't see
what's wrong with any of those permissions, unless it is an selinux
issue. Hmmmmm. Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Best, Darren
