I've just recently set up spam assassin and I've noticed a problem. I set an macro in mutt so when i see a spam it runs it pipes it though spamassassin -r, spamassassin --add-to-blacklist, and sa-learn-spam -s.
I also have a macro in mutt so when i see mis-labeled spam i run it though spamassassin -W and sa-learn-nonspam -s. The problem is when i do this it doesn't seem to update anything, the files on the ~/.spamassassin/auto-whitelist and ~/.spamassassin/bayes* have an old date and time on them and a quick `strings file |grep` shows that the entries are not in them. So whats going on? Am i doing something wrong? It has the same problem when i run it manually and I've tested my macro to make sure its not the problem. I'll include the debug output from a spamassassin --add-to-blacklist, it looks like its complaining about some lock file, but then fixes it. But no files seem to be updated. thanks eli --- debug info --- $ spamassassin -V SpamAssassin version 2.50-cvs $ cat /dev/shm/badmail.7200 | spamassassin -D --add-to-blacklist debug: using "/usr/share/spamassassin" for default rules dir debug: using "/etc/mail/spamassassin" for site rules dir debug: using "/home/eli/.spamassassin" for user state dir debug: using "/home/eli/.spamassassin/user_prefs" for user prefs file debug: using "/home/eli/.spamassassin" for user state dir debug: 7406 Trying to get lock on /home/eli/.spamassassin/auto-whitelist pass 0 debug: Tie-ing to DB file R/W in /home/eli/.spamassassin/auto-whitelist debug: DB addr list: untie-ing and destroying lockfile. debug: DB addr list: file locked, breaking lock. --more debug info -- $ cat /dev/shm/badmail.7200 | sa-learn-spam -s -D debug: Initialising learner debug: ignore: test message to precompile patterns and load modules debug: using "/usr/share/spamassassin" for default rules dir debug: using "/etc/mail/spamassassin" for site rules dir debug: using "/home/eli/.spamassassin/user_prefs" for user prefs file debug: running header regexp tests; score so far=0 debug: uri tests: Done uriRE debug: running body-text per-line regexp tests; score so far=2.2 debug: bayes: tie-ing to DB file R/O /home/eli/.spamassassin/bayes_toks debug: bayes: tie-ing to DB file R/O /home/eli/.spamassassin/bayes_seen debug: corpus too small (21 < 200), skipping debug: bayes: not scoring message, returning 0.5 debug: running raw-body-text per-line regexp tests; score so far=2.2 debug: running uri tests; score so far=2.2 debug: uri tests: Done uriRE debug: running full-text regexp tests; score so far=2.2 debug: local tests only, ignoring Razor2 debug: local tests only, ignoring DCC debug: local tests only, ignoring Razor1 debug: local tests only, ignoring Pyzor debug: is DNS available? 0 debug: running meta tests; score so far=3.2 debug: is spam? score=3.2 required=5 tests=DATE_MISSING,MISSING_HEADERS,NO_REAL_NAME debug: bayes: untie-ing debug: bayes: untie-ing db_toks debug: bayes: untie-ing db_seen ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Visual Studio.NET comprehensive development tool, built to increase your productivity.
