Most likely the cause of your user_prefs not being parsed is a typo in the
file. When SA runs normally, it has no place to complain about invalid
input, so it just skips large chunks of the rules.You must turn on debug
output for it to be able to complain about such things.
Try:

You can download the PHP template at:

Remember, you must program your own authentication, and the user_prefs
file
must be writable by the group the web server runs as.
There isn't enough error checking to this effect yet, but it should be
workable.
Hmm.. if --lint doesn't work, what version of SA are you using? Sounds like
something from the 2.2x or 2.3x, but obviously older than 2.40...
If you're using an ancient version you'll have to feed it an email with -D

Yes, that's the way most rules that users add themselves are done (ie: the

Usually only the master /usr/share/spamassassin/*.cf files are set up with

You could set up a procmail recipe (global or user owned), or you could

Then, you just configure that user's .procmailrc to only accept mail from
