I saw that but originally shied away from that; why would I want source in there? I think I see that it might be helpful, though... % % Personally I unpack it to ~/lib/Mail-SpamAssassin-2.20/ % and then do "ln -s Mail-SpamAssassin-2.20 SpamAssassin" for easy % upgrades. Yeah; I'd probably do that, too. % % Then, cd into that directory and do "perl Makefile.PL; make". There's % no need to do a "make install". Ahhhh... And the script, when called by procmail, should happily find its module because it will be looking in the same directory. I get it. At least, I think I do :-) perl modules have been kicking my butt at work lately and I don't trust anything. % % Finally, in .procmailrc, you'll want your version of: % :0fw % | $HOME/lib/SpamAssassin/spamassassin -P -a -c $HOME/lib/SpamAssassin/rules Thatnks for the handy help; I'll note this. % % (that probably just means lib->local) Yeah. % % That really should be all there is. Well, I'll try it and let y'all know :-) If I don't have to update @INC if it's done this way then it's probably easiest overall. % % -Michael % -- % Michael Stenner Office Phone: 919-660-2513 % Duke University, Dept. of Physics [EMAIL PROTECTED] % Box 90305, Durham N.C. 27708-0305 Thanks & HAND :-D -- David T-G * It's easier to fight for one's principles (play) [EMAIL PROTECTED] * than to live up to them. -- fortune cookie (work) [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.justpickone.org/davidtg/ Shpx gur Pbzzhavpngvbaf Qrprapl Npg!
