Qmail scanner problem

CrK01

New Pleskian
Hello,

i have a big problem, yesterday I was attacked with lot of spam, so i decided to protect this.. now, any web form can't send mail ( using normal php mail() function ).

I can create a test.php and send mail by root ( php test.php ) and it works great.. but not by web.

I have investigated logs, and here are the results:

May 31 03:13:31 nls X-Qmail-Scanner-2.01st: [nls.es118057401176325311] cannot open dir /var/spool/qscan/tmp/nls.es118057401176325311/ - Permission denied

Always permission denied. I have deleted /var/spool/qscan/tmp so qmail scanner re-creates , but always the same permission denied, also chmod 777 on this file.

I decided to chown tmp to apache, so there's no error but i think it can't create the files...

Any suggestion ?
 
if, for any reason, you have enabled selinux then that may also be the cause.
