I've unsubscribed my [EMAIL PROTECTED], and jumped back on as [EMAIL PROTECTED] I've taken a personal interest (Oooh!) in SpamAssassin now, so I'll be responding from my personal account from now on. I ran SpamAssassin all last night, and when I woke in the morning, didn't see a single piece of spam. Nor were there any fositives. That's about 30 spam gone from about 500-600 messages. I like it, I like it ;) ... Anyways, to complete the patch above, and to solve the error message that appears again and again (when running /usr/bin/spamassassin), the "create_default_prefs" subroutine should have something like: if (!$self->{dont_copy_prefs} && !-f $fname) { ... all the normal code ... } ### here's the new line of code ### elsif ($self->{dont_copy_prefs} { return 1; } Thoughts on this patch?
