Amavis error
I have installed Ubuntu 16.04 onto my Linode. And following the "Howto" I installed Dovecot and Postfix to run it as an email server. Everything works OK.
To add filtering for spam and virus, I followed a Howto for Ubuntu 12.04. Everything installed OK. But I get this error when processing the emails.

Any ideas on this one…???
Cheers..!!!

It looks like you don't have the right permissions to proceed. I'd say you may want to take a look into the user and making sure it's in the amavis group - you can see some solutions here:
I hope this helps!
