I'm currently using procmail -> spamassassin (not spamc) and notice the system load to some degree... If I switched to spamd/spamc, would spamassassin still store each user's settings/bayes DBs in their ~/.spamassassin/ directory? At the current time, this is a major advantage for my configuration.
