Well, I did test it, and without the -u $LOGNAME, it was impoossible
for spamd to create the user_prefs. It solved when i used the -u.

Using -u also removed the "spamd still running as root" warning.

This may be a thing to do with *BSD or euid vs. uid

BTW, I use sendmail/procmail running as root, spamd started as root
and SA v2.01
