Permissions are readable by all.  The test example you show 
        works just fine.  It's only from procmail that spamrc doesn't
        seem to connect to spamd [on my Solaris 2.8 box installed in
        my account space].  The whole thing works just dandy installed
        in system space on my Linux box and it catches tons of spam.
        The Solaris box is at work and I get way more spam there -- 
        they use some spam filter on the Exchange server but when it's
        turned up high enough to notice any reduction in spam it also
        ends up trapping a lot of false good emails that are work 
        related files from clients/vendors.

        Thanks....

Check perms.  When I installed this puppy a few days back (Yep, a newbie), 
the perms on the *.cf files were set in such a way that spamd could not 
read them (readable only by root).  Once that was fixed spamc/spamd started 
working.

I also wound up changing the daemon line in the init script, as I didn't 
want spamd running as root:
daemon spamd -d -x -P -u spamd
(the spamd user must exist for the -u switch)

To test:
cat sample-spam.txt | spamc | grep SPAM
(should get a SPAM report)

THEN, I started to play with the procmail files.

So far my personal inbox spam recognition score is 96%.  Kudos to the SA 
team, btw.
