Despite installing itself according to perl's Config.pm - which in my case meant it wound up in /opt/perl/bin, /opt/perl/share, etc - it was looking for the files under /usr/share/spamassassin and in a handful of other hard-coded places that have nothing to do with the actual installation directories. I did finally get it configured properly, and so far it seems to be working very well. In the past day it appears to have caught all of the spam sent me, along with three "false positives" - all of which were cron job output that uses a spamer-like attention-getting subject line. -- Mark J.
