Squirrelmail forward plugin

[Nicklas Norling]

Hi,

I've compiled a local policy for the squirrel plugin mail_fwd found at
http://www.squirrelmail.org/plugin_view.php?id=16.

The minimum required for creating and removing a users .forward file is:

allow httpd_sys_script_t self:capability { setgid setuid };
allow httpd_sys_script_t user_home_dir_t:dir { write add_name remove_name };
allow httpd_sys_script_t user_home_dir_t:file { write create getattr 
unlink };

Are these appropriate for inclusion in the next targetted policy or should I
send this info for inclusion in the plugins docs? Seems like an awful 
lot of rights
to hand out?

The plugin has 18000 downloads according to their webpage.
