Bug#554266: should have its own group 'spfmilter' instead ..

Package: spfmilter
Version: 1.99+0.97-3+b1
Severity: normal

A 'spfmilter' user is created belonging to the 'nogroup' group. I believe
that 'nobody:nogroup' is not intended to be used by any service for its
configuration, but spfmilter is using this group. The rationale behind this
is that if a service is started with user/group 'nobody:nogroup' it would
NOT have any rw rights on any files.

Please create a group 'spfmilter' like the majority of other services (for
example clamav and dkim-filter).

Thanks
