auto-whitelist: Inappropriate ioctl for device

Postfix, virtual domains and personal spam folders
If Amavis reports this scary error, it doesn’t necessarily means that your disk is cracked. Usually this means that the file it is talking about has wrong format. This happens, for example, if you upgraded Amavis or Spamassassin. Check current format with the file utility and upgrade it with dbX.X_upgrade where X.X is appropriate version. Or simply remove the auto-whitelist file, it will be re-created. Same with bayes_seen and bayes_toks files.
If you ever set up a popular bunch of Postfix + Amavisd-new + PostgreSQL/MySQL with virtual domains support, you could probably be disappointed by the fact that by default all messages filtered out by anti-spam and anti-virus filters go to the system’s quarantine folder.
