dear all,
first part of log snippet is to show a bit of contrast, to me it's 
peculiar situation
it's about messages between local users, actually one user, when I use 
command line mailx or anther local account to send to A_local user - ok
second part is this weir error, it's selinux which prevents deliver 
write to /tmp, I believe thsese messages are from A_local user cron 
jobs(to himself)
why would dovecot act differently in these scenarios, why would it need 
/tmp one time and not need it another
