Ok so...
 
I progressed. 

Pulling spamc from the /etc/procmailrc and placing it into the various
/usr/home/user/.procmailrc accounts works.
 
This is not that bad as I only have a dozen email address to cover here.
 
there must be a way to place spamc in the /etc/procmailrc account for
system wide use ?
 
Ok so first I need to go reset ownerships of the .spamassassin
directories and files in all the directories because running
spamassassin from the /etc/procmailrc ran as root and created all the
directories and files as root. I then will place a .procmailrc in each
one to run spamc..
 
ONCE im done will all that I will let that run a while and make sure all
that works then move on to spamass milter..
(in case I have trouble with the milter I still have the spamc setup and
running)

Subject: [SAtalk] Newbie - spamc d spamass milter questions


So I have been using Spamassassin from procmail for my own personal
server for a while.
 
This is fine as I get 40 emails a day through it. Just using:
 
:0fw
| spamassassin -P -S -a
 
In the procmailrc file for site wide mail handling.
 
I have decided to try using spamass milter and spamd spamc..
 
Im on FreeBSD 4.4 / Sendmail 8.12.3 / The current Procmail and current
spamassassin.
 
Its compiled and happy. Im using a antivirus scanner milter now so all
the milter stuff is in and working.
 
I replace the spamassassin -P -S -a in the procmailrc with spamc
 
Start the spamd with " spamd -d -c -a -i 216.122.xxx.xxx -A
216.122.xxx.xxx " as it would not start without a IP address then
complained about a unauthrozied address trying to connect.
 
This does not detach from my starting it as other daemons I have used
do. However it appears to run.
 
I have 2 stupid problems....
 
I get

May  9 03:05:03 xxxxxxx spamd[10771]: connection from xymox1.com [
216.122.xxx.xxx ] at port 2462 
May  9 03:05:03 xxxxxxx spamd[11089]: Still running as root: user not
specified, not found, or set to root.  Fall back to nobody.
 
It does not process mail. Its dead at this point.
 
When I send mail through it. I am sending a email to a alias so the real
user ID is not the to:, im not sure how spamD tries to determin which
user to become but that seems to not work. OR I am doing something
stupid :)
 
Exactly how do I start this daemon from the command line and have it
detach ?..
 
Once I have these things working correctly I will progress to the
spamass milter.
 
WHAT am I doing wrong ??..
 
Thank you in advance..
